From the story you gave, I understand one thing. which is the experience and age difference between the two of them; the younger guy lavished all he had worked for uselessly, and he got more than the older one. While the older one uses the money for his health and buys some clothes, from the story, you will discover that one of them is confused about his life. And the other one already knows about it.
Why I say this is because the young one uses what he gets to show up, which is a direct road to poverty, and he didn’t know,because if he had known, he would have utilised that opportunity that he has to build a bright future for himself and do what he wishes with the money in the future. Because you can’t tell someone what he needs to do with his or her money because there are the ones that work for it, not you, and from seeing the both of them, you will know that the older one is living more healthy and better than the younger one, and the younger one has more money than him. That is what I call the power of age and experience, which the younger one finds hard to get, if not all that won’t be happening.
