Receiving money as a gift is very common in my country. It's almost a tradition! People often give money to each other for special occasions like weddings and birthdays. Today, I'd like to talk about a time when I received money as a gift. It was my 18th birthday. In Bangladesh, you become an adult on your 18th birthday. My friends gave me a MacBook for my birthday, and my grandparents were visiting us at the time. They had come to spend the winter with us. I love my grandparents very much. They are kind and generous, and they have taught me many valuable lessons. They love me dearly. Since my grandparents are older, they couldn't go to the market to buy a gift for me. They weren't sure what kind of gift I would like. So, they decided to give me money as a gift. That way, I could use it to buy anything I wanted.
