Ok so heres the problem, I am a 13 year old boy who really wants to go on this new york city trip meeting and he lives in Las Vegas, NV (nevada) the trip costs about $1500 and my teacher needs 100 dollars by the end of next week, The package includes, airfare, broadway show, lunch and dinner for 5days 2 nights, tour guide, and hotel. My dad says its a waste and he would by me an imac computer with some wireless printer and mouse and keyboard for about the same amount of money. He says if I can raise the money I can pay for my own trip, he also says that if he used his savings to pay for it then more than half would be gone from his account, my mom thinks about the same but she wont pay either. My dad was saying that maybe writing a letter to Adelson, who is the owner of the casinos of Ballagio, Ceasars Palace, and the Venitian, he was a very good enteprenuer in his time and now hes some old guy in a wheelchair who is filthy rich.
