I forget that I am playing with mostlly teens in this PA, so let me rework this into an analogy that you can relate to:
You study your ass off for Final Exam. You don't play games, eat TV dinners in your room, miss all of your Season Finale's of favorite TV shows, don't go to the cool new release movies... for weeks.
You take your Final Exam and get an "A+", best in the class. You're hard work paid off, now you are looking at maybe getting into that college you really wanted to apply to. Feeling pretty good and happy, right?
But some of the other kids in your class had parties, played video games, went to movies and they all got C's, D's and F's and have to face going to Summer School. They're bitching and crying now, saying its not fair, the test was too hard and they didn't have the time to work for a better grade.
So their parents decide that they don't want their kids to go to Summer School, so the parents pool their money together and bribe the teacher to give the whole class an A+ grade, by offering to send that teacher on an expenses paid European Vacation. The teacher says, hey, money in my pocket, OK and gives everyone an A+ final grade.
So now everyone got the same reward you did, but you wasted a couple weeks of your life. Their parents just paid for it, and the teacher made out like a bandit.
Grasp the idea now?
