For me, the time that I received money as a gift is during Chinese New Year. We have the tradition where those who are employed give money to younger children or those who do not have a job. When I was young, before I started working, I received a lot of money from my uncle, my dad, my mom, and also my grandfathers and grandmothers. It's a Chinese tradition to give money to family members, and I think they give it because we have this tradition every year. After I got a job, I had to pay back to my own daughters or sons. When I first received the money, I felt really excited because it's only once a year that I receive money without having to pay it back. I could keep the money in my bank. This is a time when I feel like we have a lot of people together in one place, and we have fun. We enjoy talking to each other, and we give gifts to every cousin. My cousins and I are the same age, and my brothers also received that gift. It creates a sense of togetherness and joy during the celebration.
