The gift that gives cash--and keeps on giving. (Marketing News).

It was bound to happen sooner or later. The FAQ Schwarz catalogue this holiday season is featuring a "personal ATM" that parents can buy and install in their homes as a high-end toy for the use of their children, according to news reports.

The ATM, which retails for $20,000, is the Triton model 9600. It can dispense real cash, although parents may want to program it to include daily withdrawal limits. The ATM is the type that is usually located in small convenience stores. The machine can be customized to feature the child's name on the front. FAO Schwarz calls it "the ultimate expression of freedom and independence."
