  I only know I will receive extra $50 dollars this year, for spending on my cousin's wedding stuff.
  
  Other than that, it will be around $100++

  you're one lucky fella.
  
  with the economy like that up and down for the past few years, you can still able to get $400+ is quite an achievement.
  
  mine shrink from $200+ to $150+ to present $100-$120+ max only..
  
  the better the economy the richer will give lesser.
  
  that's what i think.
  
  hopefully everyone here will get a increase in amount collected during Chinese New Year.
