What to give guys in their early 20s for Xmas?

ARRGGGHHH!!!!! Nooooooooo!!!!! You were doing so well. Cash is just about the most thoughtless, offensive "gift" possible. Just don't do it.

If you actually want to help a young impoverished relative with a car/house/retirement fund/whatever, talk to them about it separately. That is not a Christmas present - put some thought in and get them something specific to the individual!

I always liked receiving cash at Christmas. Better than some lame stuff you'll just toss aside, or some other stuff that is "close" to what you really want.

If they drink, you could buy them a *nice* bottle of something that they would never purchase themselves. You will endear as the favorite uncle.

Uncles are allowed to give cash for holidays and birthdays. Not such a good idea for your girlfriend or boyfriend, but uncles can get away with it.
