If they're graduating high school and have no plans on going to college, I'd give them a big stack of job applications and tell 'em it ain't no fun waiting around to be a millionaire! ;)

Yes! Yes! I forgot about that one also! Always a good alternative to flipping a burger! At least, room and board are taken care of along with a free haircut! ;)
