Im pretty sure in China, it is tradition for all the children to be given red envelopes with cash inside. To get your envelope you have to bow to your elder though and I think you have to say something to them.(can't remember what it was... O.o It's just probably 'thanks' heh) Im not sure if the whole bowing thing is tradition, or if my family's just weeird. XDD Lol..

I get one every New Years, and so does my brother. The elders pretty much give us the $. Like my father, uncles, and my grandparents. And yah I think the $ stops flowin once you get too old. ^^
