Had a casual discussion with a colleague about Ang baos today and about the right amounts to give. The image of dad giving me Ang bao when I was young sort of flood my memories.
I only give him around 100-150 on cny and refuse to think that he needed the money , in year 2006, he asked me if I could help to advance him some money to buy the necessities for the new year and I told him I will give him his Ang bao early. That was the first time he blew his top on me. He was not so much interested in the money but more disappointed with my calculating behavior . I never woke from my cruelty even during his last new year.
