Hong Kong Superstitions
Avoid giving gifts in sets of four, and prefer auspicious numbers such as 2, 6, 8, or 9
Seek the number 8 because it sounds like prosperity or wealth; 9 is also favoured for “lasting/everlasting” connotations
Avoid the number 4 because it sounds like “death” in Cantonese, so many buildings skip 4th, 14th, 24th, and similar floors
