HE'S THE PHONE MAN!!!

On this lovely Christmas Eve, it's my pleasure to introduce you to a young man named Shabani. I met him earlier today on the streets of Bujumbura, Burundi, and his story is just about as inspiring as they come!
Shabani grew up poor and with 2 functioning legs. About 10 years ago, he had a medical problem which has caused him to be in wheelchair forever... But that didn't stop him from giving up, it only gave him more motivation. He began selling airtime (phone credits) at a busy intersection in the city, and worked his way up to doing $16,000 USD of business a month. He recently bought himself a piece of land, built a house, and has bigger plans for his future.
This is a story of never giving up, and I can't wait to follow up with Shabani the next time I'm in Burundi!
If anyone wants to send a message to Shabani or wish him a Merry Christmas, please write it below and I will show him the comment section of this video later!

Thanks brother for featuring shaban he’s one of my closest friend a loyal spirit kind soul and very hard working, God bless you.

[@ryantouhey1997]

What an inspiration. If I was in his position, his legs getting smaller and ending up in a wheelchair, I probably would have to be checked after very closely, because I don’t know what I would do. But Shabani proves nothing is impossible. That may sound a bit cliche but it’s true. Anybody can do anything if they set their mind to it, stay humble and hungry and go after whatever it may be they’re into. Wonderful story all the way around.

[@rojaachar]

Such a beautiful and kind soul... No wonder that he got wealthy, good deeds will give you good in return... God bless him & you too!

So far in my travels, it's a tie between Belarus and Japan. Drew has way more countries than me though! I'm only somewhere close to 100.

The thing is most ppl who makes these kinds of videos never visit them, they base their ideas on research and compile them together just for the sake. KZbin needs such top cleanest, filthiest, happiest countries videos made by people who actually visited them.
