The time is almost here. You can just feel that much-anticipated diploma in your hand. Finally you too will be a college graduate like the many before you. Now you will possess the skills and education to acquire that career you've always dreamed of. Isn't life grand? Can't you just see your successful future now? You've got the gorgeous spouse, two beautiful children and a sweet SUV and sports car. Uhh, hold on a minute. Aren't we getting a bit ahead of ourselves here? You haven't even graduated yet! Let's think more along the lines of college graduation announcements and who should be invited to the ceremony. There will be plenty of time for all that 'down the road" future stuff.
Think carefully! Those routine college graduation announcements you haven't put much thought into are more crucial than you give them credit for. I want you to think dollar signs. Yeah, you heard me right. Often who you send an invitation to determines how much post graduation cash you can rack up. Just think, everyone you send college graduation announcements to will naturally send you some sort of reply. The kind of reply that involves a gift in order to congratulate you on your wonderful once-in-a-lifetime achievement. And since most acquaintances won't have a clue what to purchase, they'll simply send you some cash. It's standard here in American. We all do this, but no one ever complains about it. It's great!

Finishing schools in the fifties were a good place to store girls for a few years before marrying them off, a satisfactory rest stop between college weekends spent husband hunting. It was a haven for those of us adept at styling each other’s hair, playing canasta, and chain smoking Pall Mall extra-long cigarettes.

You may not believe how well my brother came out when it was time for him to graduate from college. He was the first one in my family to attend a four-year University and man were my relatives stoked. I didn't think much of him sending out countless college graduation announcements. I just thought it was something our folks were making him do. Low and behold he received some awesome responses. Although most family members and acquaintances did not show for the boring ceremony, they sent him mad cash. The guy had well over 1000 bucks before all was said and done. Not bad for free congratulatory cash! So, do you have those college graduation announcements ready yet?
