  • Kamikoto has several special offers going on right now and is offering my viewers an extra $50 off on any purchase with discount code SB50. Go check it out at kamikoto.com/SB50
    After one of my videos went viral throughout my social media platforms, everyone fell in love with this man and his story. I got hundreds of comments from people wanting a way to donate. So, I started a GoFundMe and said I would match the first $500.
    On the first day we raised $6,000! A few days after that, we made it to $10,000! That is an unbelievable amount and I couldn't have done it without all of your support.
    Initially when I met this man, I offered to mow his overgrown lawn completely free. He was SO appreciative and told me that he didn't have a penny to his name. He isn't able to get out to take care of it because he's had 2 heart attacks and 3 strokes. He also let me know that he was in the Army for 9 years and did 3 different tours.
    So I worked all day on his front yard and got it looking AMAZING. Today, I went back to give him 2 surprises. I transformed his backyard and I gave him $10,000!
    His reaction was AWESOME and he appreciated it more than you could know! He immediately went and paid his water, gas, and electric bill which hasn't been on for 3 months. He is also getting someone to fix his backdoor and the windows around his home.
    I'm so happy I was able to help this man out to the best of my ability. I wanted to give a huge thank you to anyone who donated or anyone who supports me by watching my videos. I couldn't do it without you!

      I hope you are not one of those veterans who participated in crimes against the civilian population in Vietnam, Libya, Iraq, Lebanon, Serbia, Afghanistan, Syria, etc. America has never stood up to any world power, but cowardly attacks nations that have fewer inhabitants than many American cities. They have brainwashed you into doing something good for humanity, but actually you are just fighting for the interests of your politicians. Most of you are good people who are unaware that you are on the wrong side of justice. Write what you want, but I won't read your empty answers.

      It's sad that you think people who murder others for a paycheck and perks deserve respect. He's not a WW2 veteran. He wasn't defending the USA. He was killing people who wanted nothing to do with him. Then he lied and said he didn't have a penny to his name. If that were true, he'd be homeless.
      If you're going to get all mushy about government-sponsored murderers, at least save it for the people without homes and beds to sleep in. It's revolting that so many people have been brainwashed into thinking people who volunteered to kill others and easily could have committed war crimes are heroes. Shame on you and everyone else calling this murderer a hero.

    I wish I'd seen this sooner. I'm in tears as I watch this. I'm also a veteran (USMC 1969 - 1973; Vietnam '71 - '72). God bless you Spencer, for what you are doing, especially helping that vet. I'm 72 and still cut my own yard, but it's quite steep especially the driveway as it almost 45 degrees vertical and about 35 yards long with a bend in the center then up another 45 degrees and 35 yards to the top. I live on the side of a mountain in eastern Tennessee. I can't even use a lawnmower. Since everything is so steep I cannot use a lawnmower. I have to weed eat 1.7 acres. I've had numerous heart attacks and finally open heart surgery with a triple by-pass. I've also had a stroke back on 7/15/2017 and a stint put in in 9/19. Only thing I want are your prayers. Cheers from eastern TN and Ooooh Raahh, Semper Fi to all those Marines out there.

    Dude, you are the absolute definition of A Good Human Being. Thank you so much for helping this man. I can't even explain how much this video pleases me and equal happiness for the old-boy who lives here and has fallen on hard times. You saved him. Literally. You are a literal life-saver. Without his utilities cut off and no means of paying them to get reconnected, in addition to his serious health conditions, who knows what may have befallen him in the following months without your intervention. I am an atheist so I won't say God bless you, but as a humanist I will say you are the absolute definition of a good man. There is much horror and threat in the world right now, but you are the man we should all aspire to be, and you restore hope in humanity. Thank you. ...Ps. Speeded up you make it look so easy! But I know it is hard work.

I was glad to be a part of helping this man, and I would do it again if he ever fell into dire straights. Spencer, if more people were like you, the world would be a better place, and it's so nice to see that there still are nice people around. Sometimes when you listen to the news, it's just so depressing, and you have renewed my faith in mankind. Your compassion and your work ethic are unsurpassed. My husband was a disabled vet, and I know he's looking down on you now. You are the best, in fact you are better than the best !!

    I think this is the 2nd or 3rd video of your I have seen in last two days and this video was one of the most inspirational. There are a few great guys out there doing this for people, but never see anyone go the extra mile raising money. Its so sad to see the veterans in the USA come home to be homeless,or their house in such disrepair with no help after they fought for their country. My twin Uncles were Airforce Veterans,lost both in last two years. They received money for cleaners, lawn care, repairs, shoes, hearing aids etc. from Canadian Government. The US should be doing more for their veterans, never should we see man or woman that fought for freedom or what the rest of the country takes for granted and then watch them go hungry,. Spencer what you have done for this man in a day is more than the government has done in his whole career, God bless you and him

    Please consider wearing a dust mask when you’re using your blower. You’re probably breathing in an awful lot of dust and dirt and who knows what else. Must protect your health so you can keep doing the good work you’re doing!

    Thank you Spencer and community. I’m the daughter of 2 veterans who met in WWII. Mom outranked dad, she was a 1st Lt and he was a 2nd Lt. ( she continued to outrank him for 50 years). my dad served during the Korean War in Ft Bliss Texas where my 3rd sister was born. ( mom said the cockroaches were bigger than the baby). My brother is retired Army, another brother and a sister served. I have a nephew who served in the marines and one in the army. I still have 2 nephews who are in the army and will retire from there and begin 2nd careers. I have a nephew-in-law who has served many years and is a Sergeant Major ( in the reserves but also works in law enforcement and has a doctoral degree). Even my ex served 3 different branches to be able to get military retirement.

    This is on a t shirt l bought my son. What is a veteran? A "Veteran"-Whether Active Duty, Discharged, Retired, or Reserve-Is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America ", for the amount of, and including his life" THAT IS HONOR. And there are too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact. I am a daughter, sister, granddaughter, niece, ex-wife (Vietnam), and a mother of 2 son veterans. I have just taken my Dad and my brothers flags in to have the name plate engraved with their information on the case that now holds and displays the flag that covered their casket. I thought my Mom had their already engraved. Thank you, Spencer, for helping this man who put his life on the line for us.
