http://www.vouchon.com/tag/gifts/ http://www.vouchon.com/post/giving-more-away/ I won't go into all the reasons I think folks should give to charity, I'll just stick to this one.Charitable giving is a great way to save money on your taxes and put your money to good use as well. Gifts of highly appreciated assets (like stocks or bonds with high appreciation) are the best assets for giving and will likely save you the most in taxes. I would also recommend budgeting your giving each year so that you know how much you plan to give away and which organization you plan to give it to. Many people who itemize their taxes make the mistake of giving several small (<$100) gifts each year and fail to list them under itemized deductions. Give regularly or in large chuncks to make tracking your deductions easier. If you'd like me to keep going, just say so in a comment below :) stuboo 2007-01-24T18:47:58Z http://www.vouchon.com/post/good-present-for-a-guy-/ I can tell you two presents that went over very well with my husband. The first was a Chrismtas present one year - pilot lessons for a day. The second was his most recent birthday present, which was skydiving with his wife. It's way more fun when I can get him a present that I, too, can enjoy. I highly recommend skydiving for anyone who's never been. It's worth it to spring the extra cash for the video. jstewart 2006-12-23T07:24:01Z http://www.vouchon.com/post/giftscom-helping-find-a-good-gift-for-a-guy/ I've seen similar "find a good gift" websites in the past but it looks like gifts.com finally got it right. As a quick test, I ran myself through the quick "gift finder" and of the 12 items that showed up on the front page, I already have (or have done) at least 4 of them - and all of the others were pretty cool by my standards. stuboo 2006-12-22T12:15:32Z http://www.vouchon.com/post/christmas-present-for-a-guy/ Gift certificates at a bookstore. Most men can read and could find something they'd like at a bookstore. And you can buy stuff to eat in most bookstores these days, if they can't read. hopeyj 2006-12-21T16:27:08Z
