bladez87 SG ur grand passed away? grandpa or grand ma? i have a friend whose granny just passed on. it wld be a coincidence if u 2 know each other...
TehJarVu SG wah gave out $800, $1K etc? you all gave big denomination or to many kids in small denominations? how come ended up giving so much $$$?
alexkusu SG my mum gave up angpows like flyers... and its not small money either haih~ see what menopause can do to women
hisoka SG elders 50 or 100 bucks each to them so if you have 4 who haven't die yet its maybe 300 or 400 down the drain. then + kids say 10 bucks each. got say 6 families with avg of 3 children. which means that you have just incurred a 180 liability per year that will probably keep increasing
Wanda SG Not that there are many kids, but I gave more to parents, in the hundreds. Then some ang pow are in $50, some in $10...depends on the relationship.
elindra SG Parents and Brother got the most. In fact more than 50% of the total amount I gave out. Rest is to cousins and my nieces. Smallest ang pow out was $10
elindra SG All close relatives what Kinda like returning what I received before I got married I seldom get $2 notes in my ang bao
kaobeikaobu SG nvr keep track on the total but i think the lowest i received is 4 bucks...but its the spirit n heart tat counts..
Deportivo SG to date, around $700 dollars. packed another $888 for my mum, another $888 for my in law.
elindra SG Think like that die liao la Anyway just once a year and pretend it's a second round of X'mas presents The one with the fat ang bao is my brother I think X'mas got fat ang bao from us His Birthday just got a fat ang bao Now another one Maybe now should cut down since he is working now
Deportivo SG yep, it is really to show the appreciation for the ang bows your relative packed for you during the wedding. And to give thanks to your parents for the many ang bows and blessings they gave you when you were young.
the_don SG i've been taking note how much i receive from my relatives. when i get married i will try to give back the same amount. guess wat, the richer they are, the smaller the ang bao.
