lu4 The Chinese Symbol For Prosperity

Post by LADYSILVERMOONGODDESS32 » Thu Jun 11, 2009 2:56 pm

lu4, the Chinese symbol for prosperity, is all about attaining High Status, High Position, and Good Income.
Anyone who has Chinese friends or who has lived in China knows that Chinese parents place tremendous emphasis on their child’s education.

Such intense parental pressure on their children’s studies has roots in ancient times.

Back then a scholar who studies hard and passes the imperial examinations becomes a high-ranking official.

He brings great honor to himself and his family. His position guarantees an affluent and comfortable life.

The higher one’s titles the higher the pay and the social status.

Typical lu aspirations in China today are for high positions in government, or managerial positions in large foreign multinational companies or Chinese companies
