Mum: I would go shopping, what you you do?

Alice: I would put it inside the bank, so it would grow more dollars.

Mum: Well, I think you should be in charge of dollars now, because that is very smart.

Alice: yes, more dollars is better.

Mum: you are correct. This is pretty good, can I post it?

Alice: Sure, post it on your FalseBook.

Oliver: but if you had 2 – one million dollars would you spend it or give it to a homeless person?

Mum: oooof, a million dollars would be a lot of money to give away, but yes I hope I’d share some of it and spend some of it. What would you do?

Oliver: I’d give all of it away.

Mum: ALL of it? The whole PILE?

Oliver: (increasingly confident) all of it to the homeless people.

Mum: Wow. So you don’t need a million dollars? You have everything you need?

Oliver: Yes, I got a mum and a sister and a brother and a dad. And I have friends. I don’t need anything.
