    Some people are critising Trevor for not buying her grandmother a house and new furniture. Just to let you know, if you read Trevor's book Born a Crime, Trevor explains that gogo doesn't want her furniture refurbished and certainly she doesn't want to be moved. And that applies to all our South African gogo's actually, the furniture and the house is part of them, they don't define success by flashy things but are content with life and memories!

    I’m a black South African living and working in Dubai .. a voice in the back of my head was saying why does he not buy her a house. And I realized that although I earn a good amount of money. My mother still lives in her apartheid house. And she does not want to move, it’s good to see how Trevor still maintains his African customs simple things like knocking before you enter even though it’s your house. Greeting the neighbors whether you are friends or not this is small things that are rare in most places of the world.

      He only has $13,000,000. A new house in S.A. could run as high as $10,000. He didn't make it out of poverty to help others. Don't they have their bootstraps to pull on?

    It's sooo easy for people to criticise Trevor for not upgrading his grandmother's house but as a Kasi Kid from SA🇿🇦... I came to realise that most of our elders want to keep things the same and we must respect that, please.

      Its a BIG difference between white and black parenting (cultural), Master at None is a good example. Trevor will never get the awknowledge from Coco and his mom, even if he went for presendent, This is a age difference within the cultural differences. The consequence is that he will have relationship problems, but he will be a great father.(So Trevaa, start healing by disposing the leapard and get yourself a German sherpard)
