Chinese New Year

Gong Hey Fat Choy - Gong Xi Fat Cai- Kung Hee Fat Boy
Year of the Water Dragon.

Fa Cai (發財) is to become rich or to make money.
Thus, Gong Xi Fa Cai means wishing you to be prosperous in the coming year.
A fun way to respond to someone who greets you with Gong Xi Fa Cai is Hong Bao Na Lai, "Red envelope please!"
