Dinomani said:
Does not matter? You sit at the end of the stadium and I sit right next to the field! I can touch the match ball!

Are you really telling the truth? I also like to sit there!
Dinomani said:
Come on! Buy a ticket for the VIP seat! This way we can watch the game together!
Yes! Yes! I’m gonna do the same thing!

Yes I know! But I have the money! I have savings!
But my son! You had saved that money to buy something else! Did you forget that?
No! I have not forgotten at all!
His father said:
Well, my son, if you regularly withdraw from your savings and spend, your money will accumulate later and you won’t be able to buy your telescope soon! Does it worth it?
Yes! I want to sit in the VIP seat!
What is the difference between the VIP position and our position, after all? The seat material is the same! We will see the same match!
But I can’t touch the ball from there!
His father started laughing and said:
Touch the ball? Boy! The ball is only on the field and only the players have the right to touch it! Look, my dear! If you want to use your savings and buy a VIP ticket, buy it! But you can’t buy your telescope this way soon!
