The money contained in the red packets would be deposited in a savings account for both his three year old daughter and six year old son.
Kwok's six year old son once questioned why he couldn't use the red packet money to buy gifts for himself. Kwok answered his son's query about how much a family vacation would cost.
After deducting the amount of his son's packet money from the estimated cost of a family vacation, the child then understood and stopped begging his father to use the money for toys.
"Many organizations have invited me to their events. I click very well with old people and I'm always glad to brighten up their day," said Kwok, who also wishes to impart his good fortune to others beyond his social circle.
Kwok also emphasized that he is a man of tradition.
Every Lunar New Year, aside from the usual family dinner, he would bring his family to the Victoria Park flower markets.
"When I was a child, I lived near Victoria Park and my family used to walk around the flower markets. We didn't necessarily have to buy anything, just soaking in the festive atmosphere brought us lots of joy. I want my children to enjoy the same experience, and the simple joys that don't always come with toys," explains Kwok.
Kwok always plans special vacations with his family during the holidays. This 2015, they will visit a country in South East Asia.
