Chad is quite rich. His mom and dad have a lot of cash, and each week they give a check to Chad. But Chad is such a nice boy and he does not show off because his best friend, Shane, is not as rich.

Shane’s family does not have much. They live in a shack and have things that are very cheap. Shane lives with his two sisters, his father, and his mother. Every day they eat lunch together. Shane and his family do not have much, but they are happy because they have each other.

Chad and Shane play together every day after school. They like to race their bikes in the city; Chad will chase Shane, then Shane will chase Chad. Sometimes, they go to the gym and play catch. At night, they will rush home and chat on the internet. Chad and Shane are very different, but they are glad to know each other.
