Key Points

The correct sequence of the sentence is:
- A - "The concert was too expensive"
- D - "to waste his parents'"
- C - "hard-earned money"
- F - "so he sacrificed the chance"
- B - "to watch his favourite"
- E - "artist's live performance"
When sequenced correctly, the sentence reads:
- "The concert was too expensive to waste his parents' hard-earned money on, so he sacrificed the chance to watch his favourite artist's live performance."
This order logically and grammatically connects each part, providing a clear cause-and-effect relationship, and describing a situation where the cost of the concert influenced the person's decision to forgo attending the performance.
