I always say a 50/1.8 (or similar "inexpensive" fixed focus lens) should be everyone's first DSLR lens. Kit lenses are not helpful at all and most people end up bagging them after a few months once they understand what they want out of a lens. A "fast 50" just gets people there faster without wasting money on a lens that will eventually not be used.
