It is really a big problem for many people to get married now. Think about whether your bank card balance is enough? Nowadays, except for the double eleven, when you are very poor, every time you get married, After the peak season, many people will shout that the poor must eat dirt. Today, the editor will talk to you about how much money is appropriate to follow a family member when you get married? How should you follow this "family money" (remember, face and money cannot have both).

Calculating the family money

When I was a child, I saw my parents giving gifts to others, but they didn’t give so much! It seemed like only one or two hundred yuan, which is the standard of family money. Did it automatically increase to such a high level?

In the 1960s, people generally paid 3-5 yuan for free. At that time, the monthly salary of workers was about 36 yuan. It was acceptable to take out one-seventh of the salary for free.

In the 1970s: the share of money rose to 5-10 yuan. At that time, the common monthly salary of workers was 42 yuan, and the ratio of share of money to monthly salary did not change much.

In the 1980s: 10 yuan was no longer available for workers. 20 yuan was more common, and 50 yuan was also available. At that time, the monthly salary of workers was almost 55 yuan.

The 1990s: In the early and late 1990s, the per capita monthly salary made a small leap, from dozens of yuan to hundreds or even thousands of yuan. Even so, there were still people who only paid 50 yuan. It can be said that "those who are capable will follow more".

After 2000: In the first few years, a share of 100 yuan was normal.

After 2010: 100 Yuan range: completely out of stock; 200 Yuan range: barely able to maintain a relationship of "knowing, but not familiar"; 300 Yuan range: subtext: "Oh, newlyweds" "Happy"; 500 yuan bracket: Subtext: "Happy wedding, my friend"; 800 yuan bracket: Good relationship with the new couple and good conditions; People with affluent life start from 1,000 yuan and go up: 1,000 yuan, 1,600 yuan, 1,800 yuan, 2,000 yuan

How much is the appropriate amount for a married couple?

1. Look at the region first

Before attending the wedding, first understand the local economic consumption level, as well as the Follow the customs of the members. In first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, the "starting price" is definitely much higher than in Chaoshan. In addition, if a wedding is held in a high-end hotel, the consumption is relatively high, so the red envelope will naturally have to be raised.

2. Look at the relationship again

If you are a classmate, friend, or colleague getting married: You don’t need to consider too many customs. The main thing is to look at the closeness of the relationship and combine it with your own financial situation. If you are still studying, giving 100-300 is enough, and the other party will understand. If you are already working, usually 300, 500, 600, 800 is given.

If the marriage is between relatives, first consider the closeness of the relationship, and then combine it with local customs. In the Chaoshan area, 280, 380, 680, 880 are more common... If they are brothers and sisters, they will usually give more, and 680~1880 is more common. If there are many relatives (such as several uncles, aunts, etc.), there may be comparisons between them, so everyone will discuss it before giving gifts, and then give the same number. Unless the family background is very different, the gifts will be different, otherwise it is easy to be suspected of being pushy.

In general, it depends on the close relationship with the new person and your own financial conditions. It is not recommended to try to make someone look fat.

Be sure to keep in mind the money given to you

The better the relationship, the more gifts you give; the weaker the relationship, the less gifts you give; in addition, if you earn three thousand a month, but insist on pretending to be fat and giving thousands of red envelopes, then All I can really say is, "Brother, turn left and buy boxes of instant noodles this month when you go out." At present, those born in the 1980s and 1990s are the main force of "followers", but most people's salary is only 3,000 to 4,000, but their consumption level is not low. Many people are old and young, and their living expenses are very high. Therefore, when you follow a friend, you should remember:

1. It is not that the more you give, the better. If you have friends of the same gender, it is best to give similar gifts. If you are much taller than everyone else, If you do, you may offend others.

2. Generally speaking, even numbers are better than odd numbers, but you can also give some numbers with special meanings, such as 999 and 1314, to give your money a better meaning.

3. If someone has given you a gift before, the amount of the gift in return is generally slightly larger than what the other person gave you.
