Sway asks Chris Rock, what’s the reward for kids to do this work?
Chris jokes, “When you talk to kid, if you want them to go blank – just say “in the long run…”
Then Chris says, any time you help someone, you get a reward.
He mentions that he and his wife help out a village in Africa. And that his kids send their clothes to kids in Africa. Later, they get photos back of the kids in Africa wearing his kids’ clothes.
“And it makes you feel so good…A lot of people call you up for help, but they don’t really need help. When you help someone out who really needs it, you feel really good.” (fully paraphrased.)
