Ang Pow Issues...
-
Augmum:
Hi Augmum, mine DH's cousins also like this. Most of them will give $4 to my 2 kids, and I normally give $6 to their 2/3 kids. Although I lugi but I lugi little.talking abt ang pows issues,
it'll be nice if my cousins are as \"considerate\" as u guys here.......
u see.....they never know what is \"paiseh\"
our family's side, me , brother and sister, all of us only have 1 child
but my cousins' side all of them have 3 to 4 kids
and they are giving our kids $4 each, (all these yrs)
for the first yr, i was dumbed to enclose $10
even by giving $4 ang pows, i also \"lugi\" ......
(fyi, one of my cousin's hub is earning at least $20,000 per mth, and yet they they're not paiseh to do such thing).......
Must think those who has no kid giving $4 to every kids but no return. :roll:
Anyway its only once a year.

Your 6 cents (sense) told you the family was inconsiderate so you plus 2 cents to be more considerate..hence 8 cents :rotflmao: -
.Great thinking, next year can consider 88cents....must start collecting liao.
While browsing thru son's ang pow found a $80 one.... DH and I cracked our heads and concluded it must be and error, or 'accident' give salah..... -
Most likely give wrongly. Hopefully the person intended for the $80 ang pow did not receive $4 one!!! Surely will suffer if it is MIL

People should invent those special device....like glasses for cheating at majong. So after all the formalities and kong hi kong hi can jokingly swan the 'rich' $4 giver: \"AAHH, so you are the one nah

I think in today’s context, coins and $2 angpao are out. At least $4 for someone you don’t even know is common and normal nowadays.
