A Wealthy Businessman Had Lunch With This Homeless Woman Every Tuesday: One Day He Was Shocked To Learn What She Spent The Money People Gave Her On?

Greg Smith, the primary founder of Hybrid Athletes in Orlando, Florida, often encounters homeless individuals on the streets of his city asking for assistance. Despite his recognizable appearance as a wealthy businessman in his daily suit attire, one encounter with a homeless woman named Aimee Jo left a profound impact on him.

Aimee Jo didn’t ask for money but greeted Smith warmly with a simple wish for a good day and a blessing. This unexpected interaction led to regular Tuesday lunches between Smith and Aimee Jo, where they formed a friendship. However, the reason behind their lunches is particularly touching.

Smith shared on his Facebook page about Aimee Jo’s resilience and desire to learn to read despite her difficult circumstances. She spends her limited resources on library visits to study books, prioritizing learning over basic necessities like food. Smith was deeply moved by her determination and made it his mission to help her learn to read. Recognizing his own privilege and upbringing, Smith felt compelled to support Aimee Jo’s aspirations. They now spend Tuesdays together reading borrowed books from the library, with Smith teaching her to read.

Smith’s message on Facebook was not to elicit pity for Aimee Jo or to boast about his actions but to inspire others to lend a helping hand to those in need. He encourages people to recognize the Aimee Jos in their own lives and offer assistance, whether it’s a simple greeting or a supportive gesture.

His story serves as a reminder of the power of compassion and the impact individuals can make by stepping out of their comfort zones to help others in need. Smith’s actions exemplify the goodness and humanity still present in the world, providing hope for a brighter future.

Playground craze leaves 11-year-old boy “looking like an alien” – mom issues warning for parents

no to something that sounds dangerous.

Unfortunately, children are susceptive to peer pressure and the like; even the most intelligent of youngsters can be coerced andfmconvinced to partake in stunts that promise dire consequences.

Just ask the parents of 11-year-old Tyler Broome, who suffered horrific injuries after trying a YouTube craze known as ‘the roundabout of death’.

Yes, the name alone pretty much tells you the salient facts of the matter, but for Tyler it wasn’t so much an incredibly dangerous stunt as a way to show his friends how fearless he was.

The 11-year-old thereafter sustained injuries consistent with those seen in fighter pilots, after bein subjected to extreme gravitational force (G-force).

The craze he participated in – known as the ’roundabout of death’ – sees participants sitting in the middle of a playground roundabout whilst it’s spun at high speed using the rear wheel of a motorcycle.

Shortly after the ordeal, Tyler was found unconscious near the roundabout, left with possible damage to his brain and vision.

Extreme force

It’s believed he was subjected to the sort of G-force usually only encountered by pilots and astronauts.

It’s reported that Tyler was at a local park with a friend when they were approached by a group of older teenagers who dared them into the game.

Terrifying ordeal

“I don’t recognise my child – he is on the verge of having a stroke. Tyler sat on the roundabout, and the boy who came over was about 17. Tyler doesn’t know him, they are not friends,” his mom Dawn said, per British newspaper The Independent.

“He puts his motorbike on the floor, gets the roundabout spinning at such a speed. When they all stopped, the group just cleared off – it is bullying.”

Dawn claimed that hospital staff had never seen such injuries and had to do research before they were able to begin treating her son.

“The injuries were so extreme, he just looked like the Elephant Man. They have never seen it before, they are going to make a medical report from it.

“His head has completely swelled up, his blood vessels have burst, his eyes look alien. His vision is blurry. You can manage a broken arm but this? He doesn’t remember it, he doesn’t remember the detail.”

Parents, please always bear in mind that children are susceptible to trying things we adults would stay well clear of.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to young Tyler and his family. Share this story to spread the warning over an incredibly dangerous game.
