The 'Secret Millionaire' Watches a Man Give the Shoes Off His Feet to Another (VIDEO)
'Secret Millionaire' (Sun., 8PM ET on ABC) may be about people with a lot of money reaching out and touching lives, but the bigger draw is often those people and organizations who don't have much at all reaching out anyway.This week's millionaire was John Ferber, a successful internet advertiser. He spent a week in Los Angeles's Skid Row. Though he had a modest place to sleep, he did spend many of his days on the streets with the homeless.
On those streets, he met Amin, a man who spends his own time giving to those around him. While Ferber was shadowing him, they saw a man walking by wearing shoes that were absolutely covered with excrement. Without a moment's hesitation, Amin took off his own shoes and gave them to the man.
"I was like blown away," Ferber said. To Amin, he said, "That was amazing. Thank you for sharing this experience with me, man."
Later, when he revealed the truth of who he was and how much money he had, he came with a check for $25,000 for Amin to use in his Ariana boutique mission and other works. Ferber further assisted Amin's mission to hand out needed goods to the homeless by donating 200 sleeping bags for Amin to give away.
