dilemma duit raya

I was in Watson this afternoon. While paying my stuff, i cant help myself over heard the conversation btwn the staff there. since nak dekat raya ni, of course other than baju raya, they talked about how much duit raya to be given nowadays..
while listening to them, i was thinking to myself. How much is the smallest amount could be given as duit raya? up to how old of them to be receiving duit raya? As for myself and my family tradisi, as long as u r student (from kindergarden to uni level) u will definitely receive ur duit raya...in short, as long as u havent earning u will receive duit raya. Now, how much should be given...RM1,2,3,4 or RM5 or RM10. Nowadays kid so smart.smart and brave enuf to say ...kedekutlah auntie/unlce ni or kedekutlah kakak/abang ni. So, RM1 sure mcm tak sesuai je....that we think ..then flat rate RM5 lah..tak kisahlah besar ke kecik ke. but close relative..RM10...
BUT...due to that we become stress...tak cukup duit nak bagi duit raya,as a result , tak payah balik kampung lah. nanti nak bagi parents lagi, grandparents lagi dll....adik2...sepupu2..anak2 sedara.
SO, berilah duit raya mengikut kemampuan masing2. if tak mampu bagi byk, bagi je sikit. the most important IKHLAS..ni kan sedekah...Remember, tgn yg memberi lebih baik dari yg menerima..so berapa kita beri asalkan ikhlas...insyaallah..ada lah ganjaran nye nanti...tapi jgnlah mengharapkan balasan setiap kali kita bagi. ;-)
