I'm Chinese, but we never burnt these kinds of paper money What we burnt were paper that had some gold foil on it, and we had to fold them up into ingot shapes The weekend before Chinese New Year I had to fold several bundles of these, in between doing household chores I somehow did it, though my fingers were quite stiff by the end We also have a custom metal pot thing we use to burn the paper money at homebrbrWe did do the "burning paper version of stuff" thing though On the anniversary of my grandma's death 2 years ago my aunt insisted she needed to burn paper flip-flops for granny because she had dreamt of her looking for them

My family has stopped burning these hell banknotes Instead, we only burn gold and silver made of gold and silver papers due to the concern of hyperinflation 😂

no no no no no! As a filial descendant, you should not offer your ancestors this inflation-risk currency You should fold golden or silvery paper in the shape of a metal ingot It is well known that gold and silver are precious metals that are effective against inflation

Comment from : @Spidey_UnderTheStars

I'm representing someone in the afterlife Inflation isn't a thing In fact, contrary to popular belief, these bank notes are worthless in the afterlife, so when he received a 10 million dollar bill, he simply thought it out of existence That's when I lost communication
Comment from : @LegoWormNoah101

3:22 Just a correction, you can burn the notes any time you want There's no rule to only burn them during those occasions Also, this is a modern reinvention There's a traditional version called joss paper that's also seen as hell money

A lot of these joss banknotes being sold are copier papers, hard to burn and not the real deal Seems even joss money are faked these days I think traditional is important Bamboo and ricepaper No other artificial or recycled material The design should be faithful and true without anything outrageous or crass

I miss the old 1929 US$10 reverse (featured on the fake $50 at 3:18) The Bureau of Engraving and Printing replaced the street scene with a boring front elevation of the same building (the US Treasury Building in Washington) when the bill was redesigned in 2000 No more cars :(

Comment from : @sharonlibunao5243

Everyone who dies actually goes to tiantang (pronounced tyan tang) now in modern times and diyu is actually the correct translation of hell We also burn paper clothes with our names written on it but we don’t get to burn it This demonstrates how little times have changed

Comment from : @vinnyvine1399

During the centuries of paper money in China, hyperinflation would lead to new money being issued frequently, canceling the old money So merchants would keep most of their value in trade goods and metals, and use paper money only as needed for taxes and fees But he’d accumulate sheafs of dead paper, and it would be rather fitting to burn it at their funeral, because the only place it would have any value was the afterlife

Comment from : @RavenOnATree

sorry I'm a bit emotional right now but this is just so sweet and touching Your loved ones and ancestors are still thought of, heck you're sending them money to use Given how hard my ancestors worked and how little they had I wish my culture had a tradition of sending them things If I could I would want to share my treasures and comforts with them
