Fifty bucks is fifty bucks!

Raghav and his wife Swetha went to the state fair every year, and every year Swetha would say,

'Raghav,I'd like to ride in that helicopter'

 Raghav always replied,
'I know Swetha, but that helicopter ride is fifty bucks, and fifty bucks is fifty bucks'

One year Raghav and Swetha went to the fair, and Buddy said,

'Raghav, I'm 85 years old. If I don't ride that helicopter, I might never get another chance'

To this, Raghav replied,

"Swetha that helicopter ride is fifty bucks, and fifty bucks is fifty bucks'

The pilot overheard the couple and said,

'Folks I'll make you a deal. I'll take the both of you for a ride. If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and don't say a word I won't charge you a penny! But if you say one word it's fifty dollars.'

  Raghav and Swetha agreed and up they went.

The pilot did all kinds of fancy manoeuvres, but not a word was heard. He did his daredevil tricks over and over again, but still not a word...

When they landed, the pilot turned to Raghav and said,

'By God, I did everything I could to get you to yell out, but you didn't. I'm impressed!'


  Raghav replied,


'Well, to tell you the truth, I almost said something when Swetha fell out, but you know, Fifty bucks is fifty bucks!'
