You: Dear grandpa, I have observed that you don’t like using latest gadgets! For example, you don’t use smart-phone; nor you use debit card!
Grandpa: You are right. I don’t know how to use them; they are so complex.
You: But grandpa, they are so easy to handle; besides in modern times one just can’t do without using them. For example online-banking, e-mail, booking of gas cylinder, online payment of bills, etc. They save time, money, and energy!
Grandpa: I agree with you. But once I tried paying bill online, but I could not.
You: I will teach you using these gadgets; it is so easy to use them. You must take benefits of the modern technology!
Grandpa: Sure I will. Could you give me a demonstration?
You: Sure. Let me show you how to recharge your own mobile using your mobile. First of all click on the service provider’s app. Here, where it is written recharge, click once. Now select which plan you want to buy. Next click on buy. Now choose payment mode; we will select debit card. Here fill in the debit card details; and click proceed. Since the debit card transactions are linked to your mobile number, an OTP (One Time Password) will be sent to you by your bank. Here is the OTP. Fill in the OTP and click on proceed. See grandpa, my mobile has been recharged. I have received message from the bank that my account has been debited with the amount 349. The company has also sent me message that my recharge has been successful. You see how easy it is!
Grandpa: Wow! It is so easy! It saves not only time but other botherations such as traffic, fuel, pollution, energy also! The first thing I need is a smart phone now.
You: That’s like a great grandpa. Not only mobile recharge, you can buy almost anything online now.
Grandpa: That’s great. Let’s go to the market and buy a smart phone first!
