Charlie is a wealthy tic toc video creator. He makes a living fulfilling other people’s dreams. He drives around cities and asks homeless people, “What is your dream?” If he feels a connection and he believes he can help, he puts a lot of effort into turning her/his dreams into a reality.
In this particular case, Richard Hutchins wanted to see a painting of his in an art gallery. So, Charlie went to work. However, instead of placing one art piece in somebody’s art gallery, Charlie rented an entire gallery with only Richard’s work. Judging by the tears, it was life-changing for Richard. Charlie also created a website and hosted an auction to allow Richard to sell his work. In one night, he made $51,120. Even the famous Steve Harvey bought a painting for $3,000.
Joe’s Perspective: A lot of times I see youtube and tic toc video artists getting a lot of attention for doing pretty meaningless stuff. However, this story impresses me to no end. Instead of drawing attention to himself, Charlie finds ways to fulfill other people’s dreams. That’s pretty cool. He is changing lives and making a living doing it. That sounds like a pretty cool job.

Charley is using the money that he gains from his platform to help people in need. I think it’s beautiful that he makes sure to capture the emotions of the homeless people and how they feel when you ask them about their dreams.
I thought that it was nice for someone who has much money and makes a good living to go out and help many people make money or start them off with a better start.
Its very nice how he uses his own money to help people in need and in turn it helps him get money so he his helping them and in return getting paid back its very nice in my view.
The homeless man was grateful and appreciative that the tiktoker Charlie made his dreams come true of having his art shown in an art gallery.
This blog shows appreciation because the homeless man was in tears and really gratefull that the tiktoker made his dreams a reality.

Charlie, the guy with money, was trying hard to be there for this homeless man and showed him empathy due to the situation he was in. Charlie also tried hard to understand what the homeless man was going through and just wanted to help.
This shows empathy, because the tik tok star put himself in the homeless mans shoes and wanted to help hi out hoping that the homeless man would do the same for him.

A lesson that I learned from this story was that putting others before yourself can get you places, it not only benefits the person that you are helping but it benefits the world around you.
this video shows me that even if your life is rough right now does not mean it always has been or always will be.
well that you are able to help and that there is always hope and never give up because if you give up you may end up bringing your self further down then what you were
Sometimes helping strangers isn’t such a bad idea. Helping people gives you a super good feeling.
i got a lesson of if you help people that need help you can get something good out of it.
I take that he was homeless and he did not have anything and now he got to do anything that he wanted so that he was happy.
That even when things aren’t going good, there is always good going on in the world.
The lesson that I took from this story is that there is still good in the world. That guy didn’t have to go help this homeless guy but he did to show the guy that he cares about him.
