These two Chinese Notes were sent to to me from an Internet friend in China. Is is customary to give New Year's Money
so that the year is a prosperous one.

Not necessarily elder people, but older people. I know a 22 year old who has to give money to her cousin's child who demanded 800RMB and she gave him 200RMB. I suggested 5RMB would be good for a 4 year old.
