What a beautiful man with the most amazing heart. I’m sure this young lady will carry on the tradition exactly like him. They are like two peas in a pod.🙏🏽
I have a huge smile on my face, this story is heartwarming, I hope Kathy pays it forward when she is in her 70s, when she spoke about Pio being like family I just felt the love between these two. I believe most people out there just need a helping hand as she did.
Thanks for sharing this story. My parents sold their business and I was very sad that they didn’t make more of a profit. But the new owner has been great! It was well deserved.
Seems that she is someone that earned his heart and trust. Good for her and I know he is happier than getting any more money and only have it reputation ruined.
I Love Pio! He's the leader of the leading edge. Where the time has dawned for the Golden Rule and treating others the way we ourselves would wish to be treated, has arrived to become simply Good Manners, in our everyday, moment to moment, lives. Thank you Pio and Blessings of Love unto you sir, and unto Everyone Everywhere ✨✌✨
People always think and believe that business is just about money...but my grandfather always reminded me that .......at the end of the day business is really about people and relationships. Money just keeps the engine running, that's all . Thank you Mr. Pio for passing that lesson on .
What a great story to hear instead of all the bad news these days. Gives me hope. Wish more people were like Pio. The world would be a much better place.
It’s August 2021, who does that? Enlightened people trying to cut a deal with heaven and earth. Take care of the people of earth and get a nice place in the realms of heaven. Bless this man for not being tied down in his decision, by family, friends, or money. This type of person truly should be glorified, not greedy fools like Trump.
Another happy ending to the American dream story. I'd like to hear some American dream stories from some very lucky Californians now. I want to be inspired. After 50 years here in California, I've yet to achieve this American dream that my father thought he was fighting for me serving this country 13 years in Vietnam conflict and 12 years civilian government. I must be doing something wrong or they misled him. But, yeah, let's hear some more amazing stories. I don't want to lose all hope.
*Nothing's changed! Pio's still him, I'm still here, it's just the BILLS COME TO ME NOW!* 15yrs working for him & she gets *SET FOR LIFE* by spending *$1.00!* I *TRULY* hope that she's able to keep the salon in her family or maybe do the *EXACT SAME THING* Mr. Pio did, if her child(ren) has no interest in cutting hair. If she has no niece/nephew, etc. Keep *Paying it Forward in Honor of Mr. Pio!* 💈✂️💇🏻♂️💇🏼♀️💇🏽♂️💇♀️
I'm happy that she got an opportunity from Pio when the rest of corporate America didn't want to give her a chance. It's kinda sad that young people these days often don't get an opportunity because most jobs require experience but you can't get experience if nobody will hire you.
My mom look after her aunt who was childless and suffering tuberculosis. No one in the clan wanted the dirty job, everyone were disgusted and scared they might catch the disease. My mom accepted the challenge for no cost. She would bring my siblings and I to visit her aunt and sometimes the latter would be embarrassed and told us not to get too near her so we don't get infected. I was 7 then and all precautions has been done. Months later mom's aunt succumb to her illness and surprisingly left mom everything... properties, jewels... everything. It was a DEED OF SALE (though mom really didn't pay a dime) not just an inheritance because the old lady knew the other relatives were greedy and selfish, and yes didn't lend her a hand when she needed it most. To these days, my family still have almost everything that was gifted to us. Some properties has been forcedly given to other relatives because mom is a simple person and avoid conflicts. So yeah people, be nice. Things like this happens.
SO much better than the usual. Such a better way of passing a business along than to just give to kids who are usually not the right choice. The country would have stayed great if this had been the way. WE SHOULD ALL START EVEN IN THE RACE. Today, the US is backwards underserved priviledge.
HE is one of the few people of his generation that actually cares about building tomorrows generation for success
Now that's OG right there. Those long lost values at play here.
She’s so grateful ❤️ He was searching for the right person and she is it!
What a beautiful man with the most amazing heart. I’m sure this young lady will carry on the tradition exactly like him. They are like two peas in a pod.🙏🏽
I have a huge smile on my face, this story is heartwarming,

This is so COOL, make the previous owner proud. You must be an amazing young woman!
Great man with my favorite...OLD SCHOOL VALUES AND MORALS!
"She's loyal. Honest. One of a kind."
He knows
He could not have found someone more deserving of this, great story.
So happy he sold it to someone worthy of it. 😊💙
Much respect Pio!!!
.....or 2 Pios in a pod 😍😍😍
Thanks for sharing this story. My parents sold their business and I was very sad that they didn’t make more of a profit. But the new owner has been great! It was well deserved.
A touching story about 2 very nice people.
What a lovely legacy!!!!
Seems that she is someone that earned his heart and trust. Good for her and I know he is happier than getting any more money and only have it reputation ruined.
He’s basically giving his fortune away, and with that he has gained heaven jewels. Beautiful 🙏🏼
What a beautiful story! Paying it forward.😊
Just a reminder that when you do the right thing when no one’s watching, you never know how you will be rewarded later for it.
Thank you Mr. Pio for your Kindness!! You are 5 star!!
Pio is a truly amazing person I wish him well and happiness as well as the young women
God bless both of them and her business ❤️
I Love Pio!
He's the leader of the leading edge. Where the time has dawned for the Golden Rule and treating others the way we ourselves would wish to be treated, has arrived to become simply Good Manners, in our everyday, moment to moment, lives.
Thank you Pio and Blessings of Love unto you sir, and unto Everyone Everywhere ✨✌✨
Started from 0, ended with $1. Still a win!
What a heartwarming story! May he and his wife be blessed for their generosity and kindness.
People always think and believe that business is just about money...but my grandfather always reminded me that .......at the end of the day business is really about people and relationships. Money just keeps the engine running, that's all . Thank you Mr. Pio for passing that lesson on .

This is how it should be. Give people who have a passion and love the business a chance. I'm glad he saw the passion.
TEARS! TEARS! TEARS!A LIVING ANGEL LIVING AMONG US...
HES DEFINITELY A BLESSING
What an absolutely wonderful story.
What a wonderful thing he did. Always make him proud, young woman.
Nothing has changed but the bills have my name on them. 🤣
What a dear man 💜
Wow what a great honest man!
What a great story to hear instead of all the bad news these days. Gives me hope. Wish more people were like Pio. The world would be a much better place.
Aw that’s so kind.
You gotta love the fact that “entry-level” jobs require 26 years of prior work experience
A REAL G!!! Need a million of his kind!!
What a GREAT THING!!
It’s August 2021, who does that? Enlightened people trying to cut a deal with heaven and earth. Take care of the people of earth and get a nice place in the realms of heaven.

Beautiful HE PAID IT FORWARD
This made me tear up cause it's so beautiful
Man I normally don’t cry but I cried with the new owner she deserves.

The, "American Dream," coming to fruition is *not* the norm. One has a better chance of being stricken by lightning or winning the lottery.
This is one stand up guy! Good job, Pio!
People like this don’t exist anymore, god bless him and her
Very few people like this still exist
I passed this place many times off exit 59 Merritt parkway on Whalley ave next cvs
They'll see an uptick in business from this I bet!
God Bless this man.
Retirement is glorious with blessings from God for this Sincere Wonderful guy.these kind gestures pleases God.

I love this cbs inspiring stories..cbs is the "make a wish" of mainstream media
Wow, what a generous Pio
So wonderful!
Bravo pio. Viva Italia.
What an amazing story.

The interviewer looks like the new owner of the salon. They could be sisters.
Lovely man, great legacy! 👍
Beautiful!!!
Pio Pio 🔥
Ciao! Pio ! Que dios te Bendiga Caballero.
Awesome fellow
Beautiful man.

Pio The Barder sounds like Don Vito Corleone from the movie Godfather

SO much better than the usual. Such a better way of passing a business along than to just give to kids who are usually not the right choice. The country would have stayed great if this had been the way. WE SHOULD ALL START EVEN IN THE RACE. Today, the US is backwards underserved priviledge.
Lord give her the wisdom to keep it and grow it✊🏿
WTG he worked hart blessings
If she wasn't a family friend, he would have sold it for what it's worth.
Badass!✊🏿😊🍻
