Today is the Chinese/Lunar New Year. I remember during the last couple of Chinese New Years with Eddie, he would opt to give me either half or all of his red envelope money. I believe he did this for me because I had just graduated from college and he knew I wasn't making very much.
This act of kindness may seem pretty typical of an older sibling, but it meant a lot when Eddie did it. It's because as most family and friends knew, Eddie didn't simply give away his money recklessly. It was either because he wanted to help that person or it was a smart investment. I would like to think Eddie thought of it as both for me.
Sun Nian Fi Lauk., Eddie. You're always in our thoughts.
