I do feel that being kind is important. I mean, it's not like, excuse my language, it's not like I can't be an asshole. I can, for sure.
It is something that I value, yeah, deeply. And this is the women in my family. This is my mother. We never had a washer and dryer when I was young. And so we'd go to the laundromat like a lot of people do. And there was a video game there, arcade game, centipede or whatever. And she would give me the change to play it. But spending those years in a laundromat. Just being around people.

My mother's dream in life was to be able to afford, to be able to take $1,000 out of the bank and go around to all these other people folding their laundry. And when they weren't looking, slip in a $20 bill. You know, like so that when they got home, it's like, wow, oh, my God, like in their sweatpants.

OK, ready for this? I was traveling in Southeast Asia. I was in Cambodia and then I was in northern Vietnam. I came back to Cambodia and I wanted to go work for an organization because I met this really cool backpacker. And she said, I just got back and this organization was cool. I called them and I said, I'd really like to come.

I'd like to give some money or I'd like to do something like a lot of people do. The guy, you know, never got back to me. But so then I had this driver. His name was Tang. And he had this tuk-tuk, right, that he drove me around. I knew enough about the country to know that there are families that still comb the trash pile looking for jewelry and things of value that they can make money off of.

Correct. So I stopped at the ATM. I got out $2,000. And small bills. And we spent, I want to say, 12 hours just walking that trash pile on top of it and then the tents and everything that are off to the side. And I just gave it out $20 at a time, just like my mama. And it was one of the greatest experiences of my life.
