I can't even imagine my dad or grandpa working at such an age. It's scary to know that there are elderlies like him working their whole life without ever truly retiring:( Thank you to all who helped in making this happen🙏🏾
I absolutely love everyone who donated. You're all amazing people. I pray such good things for your lives. In a world full of anger, vitriol, and hate,we rarely see things like this anymore. It's so beautiful, and so are each of you who shared, viewed , liked, and donated the video. Without each of those steps this miracle wouldn't have happened.
The Department of Veteran's Affairs fails Veteran's and is a joke. They make everything impossible to do online and try to make you so frustrated that you won't return. Everything to them isn't service connected. I was a Paratrooper with 4 deployments from 2001-2011. Bad knees and back, VA denied my claims. I wanted to go to the Va and set myself on fire in the waiting room at one point. I'll be working til lunch time on the day of my funeral.
@@balanced2482 those are american tax dollars that could have gone to improving american lives so yes it is related whether you like it or not you twat
@@ham5483 except thats literally ignoring how thats not how it works. I hate to brake it to you friend but that money wasnt gonna go into universal health care, expanding pubic projects or increasing funding to schools in any scenario. For the Ukraine situation to be relevent, the govern body would had the intention to do anything about it in the first place and taken money out of the planned budget. Of course, help citizens in ways that matter would have just been shot down by the republicans
Someone please promote more men like this, I don’t know a thing about Bug Boys but if they were down here in Virginia they would have my business! From a Marine to that gentleman, you sir are a leader. Thank you that is what America is about
🥹❤️ Thank you Rory for organizing this. So sad to see elders in America still working to survive🤦♀️ why haven’t his family in Florida visit him?😢 damn people take care of your parents! They sacrificed a lot for you!
"82 years old and grinding everyday" The media is treating this as some heartwarming story of generosity, but this is a dire fucking warning of things to come. So many working class Americans are in no position to save for retirement and in the decades to come there won't be enough go-fund me donations to help all the elderly gen-x and millennials who have aged out of the work force but aew still struggling to make ends meet.
I put two kids in college. didn’t have enough to pay parking lot permits . Today : they don’t visit me or call to know how I’m doing. THANKS GOD I BUILT MY OWN HOUSE AND ITS PAID FOR. God bless America 🇺🇸.
Yes it’s heartwarming for this man. But as Americans we have to ask ourselves why so many elderly people need to work at Walmart when they should be retired. It says something about our system. And you know what that is, I don’t need to tell you.
I just hope this is what it seems to be. He seems like a super nice guy....but did anyone check his actual income ? He may have been retired from another job and was working at Walmart to stay busy.
Very inspiring story but why is this gentleman on his own in Maryland while having daughters in Florida that could take him in for what seems like the last stretch of his life?
This man retired two times. He is a much better man than me. He initially retired from GM to, GET THIS, help take care of his ex-wife's Husband! Then, when her husband died, he took care of his ex-wife until she died. Google it, if you can't believe it. Then he goes back to work at Walmart. I don't care what is said about Walmart because, in this case, they did the right thing by allowing him to work
He was just waiting for the donation what a smart old man. Why can’t he work with the home for the aged instead since he want to serve? I lost a job because of an old man! The company chose the old man than a young worker like me! He’s a selfish old man!
Our VA is horrible towards veterans. It makes me furious that he had to work to get by after doing so much for us. It shouldnt have been random strangers giving their money to provide his retirement. It shouldve been our government that he sacrificed so much for. If my grandpa was still working the way he is now, id lose my shit.
This is why it blows my mind that people still volunteer to “serve their country” stories like this piss me off. Y are so many vets (even the sober ones) so damn broke
Every American that has put in years of workshould ve able to get full retirement at 62 and I mean paid enough to live not scratch by this country is good at taking our money and giving it to foreign countries not our elderly disabled citizens
The US media should reverse what they put out in public. Only these good, uplifting news should be presented and not the news where people are killed, robbed, etc. What you feed your mind in terms of information, that's what will come out as behavior. Same thing with food on the physical level; eat good healthy food and your body will express that in health, less disorders and longevity. The mind appeals to the same laws. Imagine if within the GOP or between the GOP and the Dems this behavior of giving we just witnessed, would exist. USA would look totally different.

Thanks for all the people who donated and showed real humanity
Veterans all over need help. It makes me so happy to see this man living his last years as a happy man. This is the most amazing video I've ever seen.

The man was in his 80s and still couldn't retire? Thats dystopian

Thank you Rory! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is what we need....to show love one to another.
Finally time to go fishing, grandpappy. Well deserved. The elderly are us, years from now!
This man needed this Blessings 82 working at Walmart

I think about this often
I put two kids in college. didn’t have enough to pay parking lot permits .
Today : they don’t visit me or call to know how I’m doing.
THANKS GOD I BUILT MY OWN HOUSE AND ITS PAID FOR.
God bless America 🇺🇸.

his kids dont help him or visit him in years yet he still wants to go visit them aww
Can we give a shot out to Rorey? He’s awesome ❤
This should be what our news is about
amazing story
This is beautiful
Oh look, something we should all already be paying for.
Shame on his children , years without seeing your father ? Your 82 year old father , that’s still working ? Dammm
What a blessing GOD BLESS Amen! 🙏💞💞
I just hope this is what it seems to be. He seems like a super nice guy....but did anyone check his actual income ? He may have been retired from another job and was working at Walmart to stay busy.

And he wants to go fishing and have some cold ones. I wish I would have seen the go fund me! Your donations are not unnoticed
Thank you Jesus!!!🥹🥹🥹
how can this happen in usa today?

Yay!!! ❤️💕❤️💕❤️💕
❤️
Why hasnt he seen his daughters in years? Don’t they visit their elderly dad to check he is ok?
I Hope they arent going to take advantage of him
Just one question, doesn't older people in usa get social security benefits?
A+
Talk about a feel good story. No doubt he was a WW2 vet.
If he’s 82 that means he was born in 1940 or 1941, which means he would’ve been 4 or 5 when WW2 ended in 1945
Fishing and beers!! Do you bud
The American dream.
He was just waiting for the donation what a smart old man.
Why can’t he work with the home for the aged instead since he want to serve?
I lost a job because of an old man! The company chose the old man than a young worker like me! He’s a selfish old man!

His kids and grandchildren could have visited him, instead he’s planning to visit them .
82 = early retirement
💙💙💙💙
To anyone from any industrialized country outside the US, this story is the opposite of uplifting.
Its depressing af
Yup, I totally hear you. It's scary and sad :(
im all for this story. Truly great. But can we not use Tiktok- the chinese data hoarding social media app?
this is what we shld use tiktok for

I think this so great that he got rasid 1.00 dollars for retermint
Age is just a number, if you need money, you need to work. People are so pathetic
Try telling that to your parents or grandparents
Dont you ever try and change capitalism.
Just work until you shake and drop.
He had an headstart in life nd still failed? Damn well congrats lol
God is good 🗣️
