My uncle gave my nephew a 5 billion red envelope, but my mother said it was only worth one yuan. Why?

A treasure mom in Beijing sent a video saying that the children's uncles gave red envelopes to their nephews and nieces as the Spring Festival approached, and the children were very happy. Bao Ma opened it and saw that it was a 5 billion red envelope, but it was a Buwei coin. Because she didn't know the conversion of Buwei currency, she searched online and found that a Zimbabwean currency of 5 billion was equivalent to RMB 0.5 yuan. Zimbabwe dollar is the largest amount of paper money in the world. Under the severe inflation in Zimbabwe, money is not as good as paper, and spending money is even weighed by weight, which is comparable to "Tiandi Bank". The red envelope sent by this uncle is not enough for a haircut in the first month!

Many netizens said that my uncle was generous and gave 5 billion yuan, but he was also very stingy. In fact, his value is only 1 RMB. Back home, people who are basically single and have no children don't have to wrap red envelopes, so it is still very easy to go home for the New Year.

Actually, how can I put it? Giving out red envelopes is a picture of Chinese New Year celebrations. The number is not much, but the feelings we have together in the New Year! Of course, personally, although I am a working class, I certainly hope to give more red envelopes to my elders, such as grandparents, parents and others, which is meaningful to the younger generation. I don't think red envelopes should be pursued deliberately. Don't be unhappy because of red envelopes. How much you give, I will exceed you, otherwise I will lose face. In fact, the most important role of red envelopes in the final analysis is to enhance feelings and convey happiness!

When I was young, we children were all looking forward to the Chinese New Year, because there were delicious food and delicious drinks, and we also received red lucky money red envelopes from adults. At that time, the only red envelopes were from 5 yuan, 2 yuan, 10 yuan. Of course, I am very happy to receive 1 yuan.

However, with the development of economy and the improvement of people's living standards, the red envelopes for the elderly and children are getting bigger and bigger, and the trend of comparison is prevalent, and people below 200 can't get them. It is a heavy burden for many difficult families and struggling young couples. Even many people choose not to go home for the New Year.

In fact, the wind of comparison is not desirable, and everyone knows it well, but it is inevitable because of face. I think it is acceptable to give the elderly a bigger red envelope to show a little filial piety, but whether giving the children a red envelope of 1000 or 500 will form the illusion that money is easy to get and form the habit of getting something for nothing, which will be endless harm.

Will children be happy or unhappy when they know the truth? I think if I were any age, I would be very happy. When I was a child, I was not very sensitive to the concept of money, mainly because I thought it was fun.

Therefore, the number of red envelopes issued in the New Year varies from person to person, and it is important to mind. Red envelopes should add a festive atmosphere to the Chinese New Year and should not be a barrier between them. This uncle did it. This uncle is really generous and stingy.
