Really? We have this since young. Now you make me realise it is general for Chinese. Ops.... Maybe it is Hokkien because of the "ong lai" but Mandarin and Tangarine should be a CNY belief. I am not sure too, but it has passed to me from my older generation. Oranges = "kam" in Hokkien = gold.
Aww I never heard any of those haha. Same as foochow = "kam"!
