God of prosperity

Lunar New Year is coming soon and my favourite song is Chai Shen Dao
 There are 2 versions.

(those are not my videos, just to let you know the 2 versions of Cai Shen Dao that I know of)

Back in college, the term God of Prosperity refers to an ATM machine (redundant ATM machine = auto teller machine machine).

Withdrawing money from an ATM is coined as "worshipping the God of Prosperity"

ATM card is our joss-stick.

So the phrase "I am out of cash, I need to worship the God of Prosperity" is our way of saying "I am out of cash, I need to withdraw some cash from the ATM machine"

Again, why can't we simply say ATM instead of ATM machine?

So when ever I listen to these songs, I would smile, reminiscing those days.
