    This is the MOST ridiculously humble and down to earth episode I have ever seen, dude got his necessities sorted and then spent the rest on his family and the local community with the gym, in fact he spent more on his family and others than himself, totally selfless and no stupid spending on jewellery or unnecessary expenditure, its incredible.
