The "piggy bank" from my childhood stored more than just coins—it held a wealth of memories.
My childhood "piggy bank" taught me that little by little, one grows; what I saved wasn't just coins, but a wealth of memories.
Back then, I had no concept of saving; I only knew to put my lucky money and pocket money into my "piggy bank," waiting for the right moment to "slaughter the pig" so I could buy new toys or clothes. I can no longer remember what I eventually bought, or even if my mom confiscated the piggy bank. Yet, that sense of anticipation and the "clink" of coins dropping into the bank remain etched in my heart. Today, the "piggy bank" has become a nostalgic ornament, but one that carries the memories of many Hong Kong people.
