[quote=Anonymous]I know that it is a big no-no in the US, but as an immigrant I still follow my culture and give money gifts in lucky envelopes. The idea of giving "lucky money" to people is that it will attract more fortune to them. If I am give the same amount as a gift card or even a check then I have made access to that cash harder for the recipient. It is opposite of being "lucky" if they need cash and they cannot use what I have given to them. I slip the money envelope inside the holiday card with a note for each teacher. I know posters on DCUM people are horrified about giving cash to teachers because it is demeaning. I think that because so often the teachers are using their own money for classroom needs there is nothing disrespectful if we give them cash. Just my own opinion. [/quote]
