Question confused: 5W30 or 5W50?

I'm confused, the place where I buy my castrol syntec (full synthetic) has no more 5W30, only 5W50. The dude said that they only make it in the 50 now, and that there is no difference. What the hell is he talking about? Can I really put in 5w50 instead of 30? Are they really the same?

Thumbs down

I'd find a new place to buy it, or avoid that guy when I went in.
