ts butthurt, dont get marry in the future, coz karma will hunt u down, then by that time i bet some1 will be complainin on angpao not enouf la, this n that la.
solution:
1. ppl invite, if u dun wanna pay, dun go. if ppl ask y angpao so thin, slap them, problem fix.
2. dont get marrid, coz u dont need to invite so many ppl and look at their black face like prostitute selection.

ts toking like ppl need his angpow
some might be that kind, but i very certain it is not all

my case 2-3 of my relative angpow enough to cover all already
end up if dont want pay just dont go, problem lies in ownself

angpow is not a gift, can only be considered as a loan
they will give u back later, and for calculative person, you actually earn double if you are single when they invited you

You think giving ang pow really is value the money? Pfft. All I can say is that TS, you are POOR.

POOR in terms of MONEY and also MANNERS.

TS should not get married at all. Sikit sikit complain.

to prevent unnecessary argument from people all around the dinner, i pay also la up to typical chinese rate. just tat cant accept they say no gift, only money. u know how that feel? is like what?! so materialistic one why?
*
they dont want gift then dont give lo, since u already asked. next time just gift no need to ask.

actually rm100 no big deal la, go out supper rm30-50 oso fly already
sometime they may not meant what you think though, if you wanna give me an oven i rather you give me empty red packet


i have a lot of acquaintance but i dont join them for other activity other than necessary one
i only attend and entertain my best friend, other tak layan, only layan those i think it is worth
no face given even my wife side relatives which frequently hold activities for angpow and act rich

2. need to keep all the collected moneh in safe place
3. calculate and pay/topup for the dinner in limited time

Just focus on 90s until today, you dont need to go way back hundred or thousand years ago. Show me some evidence that there were people giving a basket of oranges for wedding dinner from 90s until now? Chinese wedding dinner is normally giving ang pow. And dont use "should be" for a chinese tradition. If you dont want to follow its your business.

if wedding only already headache, will have more headache to come
Eg:baby born, full month, birthday, anniversary, house warming brows.gif

still the decision to go or not to go, to give or not to give, is on your own so dont blame other

she no force then wont say eh wanna invite ur husband sekali or not? my husband already say earlier he dont wanna go, so she ask again and i already say no... u can see ma she wanna cover cost or just sincere to invite u go... normal friend... not best friend...
*
i have no normal friend, i have only acquaintance and best friend

it seems that you are very reluctant to reject the offer, worry about no face problem? if that is the case you and her = same same.

gift melei colleague RM100 damn happy dia

QUOTE(+3kk! @ Oct 15 2015, 04:21 PM)
so i can stop giving ang pow and call it a tradition?

thats an inviting thought.
*
actually no need to argue, end of day if you not willing to give just dont give
if you give because of face problem, then have to blame yourself not the one invited

you got choices, and you decided it
1. reject invitation 2. give amount you willing to 3. follow rate 4. give nothing

you guys should also look the bright side of these wedding dinners;
its a great place to meet singles (my friend met wife there)
and usually the girls spend the whole afternoon if not the entire day preping themselves for the dinner
*
girls usually transform that day lol, more power than transformer/supersaiyan biggrin.gif

QUOTE(HoneyPink @ Oct 15 2015, 04:25 PM)
not no face problem... she asked so i just ok.... im those type that rarely say no .... so ok my salah la next time people ask i say no more....
*
next time not close friend just reject la, unless you think they are worth your blessing
going to these kind of occasions is wasting time in my opinion, i prefer to sleep at home
those "normal friend" if you got trouble most of them wont help you oso

imagine if you want to pinjam RM10K, imagine if he is willing drive you to clinic in case of emergency at 3am, if you think he will then go he is worth
for those i go i am willing to give at much as i can afford, it is a token to show my gratitude toward our friendship or relationship, not about money at all
