yeah, i remember back in the day where we'd get so excited to get "lucky" money in those bright red envelopes - a crisp $2 bill was great! Nowadays, kids expect nothing less than $5-$10...so spoiled! We definiitely enjoyed it more when we were kids.

| I'm a horse (with fire element), so it's not supposed to be a good year. Rats and horses are not compatible. |
