When HK was in the change for manufacturing business in the 60's and 70's, almost every family had some factory outsourcing work, like making plastic flower, plastic jewel, gloves..etc.  I was very lucky to get the most-profitable work thru' my aunt - making watch's metallic strap.  In just a few weeks, I could make around HK$60-70 (about 2 hours a day) (as compared to making plastic flower for HK$20-30 on the same working hour).  
So in a few months, I had HK$180 and there I got my first remote car.   Actually I was hoping for a speed boat, but it's too expensive back then.   On and off, even after I worked in the first few years, having remote control toys was still difficult.  There have been something I often thought about, e.g. helicopter, submarine and a speed boat.
