Japan, which also belongs to the Chinese cultural circle, is also very entangled in giving New Year's money.
Japan's New Year's money**
This uncle, the New Year has been experienced:
Avoid going to a large family with many children, otherwise you will not be able to make ends meet, so it is better to buy meat for yourself.
There is also a question from the soul of a Japanese uncle:Just because it's a child, you can get money, right?
Do you want to give New Year's money? How much is appropriate?
It's a very expensive question.
According to our Chinese rules, we look at each otherRelationship closeness, face size, family status, number of childrento distribute at will, there is no uniform standard.
Rumors fall into three categories.
Subsistence type: The family income is not high, and the child's New Year's money is only about 50 yuan.
Well-off: Ranging from a few hundred to several thousand yuan per child.
Local tyrant: It is not impossible to reach tens of thousands.

By region, it varies from year to year.
In 2022, Tokushima Prefecture ranked first on the list of New Year's money in Japan, with 16,656 yen, and Iwate Prefecture at the least, with only 5,516 yen, less than half of the national average of 9,455 yen.
In 2023, the most New Year's money in Japan will be given to Osaka City, more than 40,000 yen, and the least will be 5,794 yen in Nara City, which is equivalent to 280 yen.
Of course, the amount of New Year's money mainly depends on local habits, and cannot be generalized.
But whether it is a wedding or funeral, the Japanese will have a **, and there will also be a **special popular science, according to the relationship between near and far and the age, a very detailed guide is listed, and both parties will be embarrassed.
Japan is oneGroup society, do everything to look at the people around you first, to achieve a kind of socialConsistency and coordinationFollow the rules and follow the rules.
Even the New Year's money will be counted for you to be a similar amount, and it will be ranked in order.
Only in this way will everyone have a common tacit understanding and not make mistakes.
Pressing the New Year's money, losing business
As for how much money is given every year, it depends on social factors.
First of all, it must beSalary
Only when the parents' income increases, will they give their children more money for the New Year, otherwise they will be swollen and fat.
In 2023, Japan's minimum hourly wage will increase from 961 yen in 2022 to 1,004 yen, so the average New Year's money given in 2023 will be 45%。
Look at it nextPrices
Although the average monthly salary in Japan in 2023 will hit a new high, reaching 318,300 yen, or about 1 yuan540,000 yuan, **21%。
But at the same time, prices are growing steadily.
In 2023, Japan's consumer price index, which measures price fluctuations, averaged 31%。
So do itThe wages of the workers have not kept up with the prices, and the salary increase has risen lonely.
The world of adults is not easy, but children don't know it.
In the face of soaring prices, Japan's wedge** suggested through a survey that considering children's shopping expenses, it is necessary to increase the New Year's money that can make up for the ** part of prices.
Otherwise, the real purchasing power of Japan's New Year's money in 2024 will decline.
As a result, the total budget for New Year's money in Japan this year averages 25,099 yen, an increase of 6% over last year.
However, in addition to objective factors such as wage income and price expenditure, there are many other social and environmental impacts.
Overall, the amount of New Year's money in Japan is on a downward trend.
The 2021 New Year's money is the lowest in the past 10 years. This is because of the outbreak of the epidemic, and the New Year's greetings and exchanges between people have been controlled.
After the opening of 2022, there was a small recovery, but in 2023 it began to decline again.
Looking back at the decreasing trend of New Year's money in the past 10 years, the most important reason is actually JapanUnmarried, late married, and declining birthrateThe state of society.
No one gets married and has a baby, who else can the New Year's money give?
If Japan's declining birthrate continues, the custom of "spending money on New Year's money" may become a thing of the past.
Of course, the three East Asian countries are holding hands, laughing at 50 steps and 100 steps, and no one can say anything.
When I was a child, collecting New Year's money was the most anticipated moment of the New Year.
Now it has changed from "keeping the New Year's money for you" to "giving New Year's money to relatives and children".
For young people who are too lazy to get married and have children, this expenditure will be the hope that there will be no return for a long time.
Because you don't know when you will have the opportunity to let your baby collect money from other people's families.
