my theory is that with family, if they are giving you presents and money as 'lai see' then its just coming out of the family's pocket anyway. I don't need presents because most of the time they are just semi-useless doo-dads, and if i really need money i will ask for it, otherwise i can work for my own cash.

If i see my parents digging into their wallets to give me money when im not especially strapped for cash i wont take it. its not like you are getting any richer if your parents are the ones giving money to you.

its a bit different with relatives though. I don't like taking money from my extended family either, but sometimes chinese people can be really insistent and take it as an insult if you don't take their gifts lol

independent fearless. good for u. i see lei see come my way, there is just no way i can say no. my rents have never helped me out so lei see is their only contribution. i see ur point about my parents not getting any richer by giving me money, but...i dunno, lei see is a celebration. shouldn't spoil the fun. plus, its one month of free rent money for me...
