I Gave My Parents $100,000

all right guys um today is probably one of the most special and biggest days of my life when I started doing like social media in 2016 uh shortly after that when I was getting into like golf YouTube I saw a video on YouTube of like that Mr Beast posted he gave his mom a hundred thousand dollars and like I watched that and it like it just really hit home for me because I was just like one day I just hope that I'm able to do that uh for my parents as well and thankfully because of all your guys's support everyone in good good calling behind the camera right now Bobby Grant literally everyone Mike uh Steven Matt Chase Louise Max I miss anyone there's so many now I got them all okay I think I got them all just all of good good in general uh everyone who's watching the videos like I'm kind of I honestly I'm kind of getting chills right now because it feels like Bobby was telling me he he was saying like uh probably feels surreal and it really does like for me today feels surreal uh it's something especially in the last five months I'm kind of like all right when is the time when when am I gonna be able to do it and today's the day that I I get to give back I get to give back to my parents a hundred thousand dollars and like I said once again it's thanks to all you guys watching and supporting getting me to the point where I can do this I see it like a lot of YouTubers they start they start doing really well and some go buy Lamborghini and do all this other stuff like sports cars and I don't have anything against that I think that's great for me it's like my first goal when I I feel like I made enough money to do it was was to give back to my parents because even thinking back like when when me and Mike were like starting to really get into golf like I convinced my dad to build a putting green you know if he didn't spend that money to build that putting green and take all that time um I would not be to where I am I I would not be to where I'm at today dude this is crazy um I guess to kind of shorten it I'm just like very grateful to be where I'm at today even that in that beginning they built me that putting green you know he spent that time that money and if he hadn't done that like none of this would have happened I wouldn't have started doing trick shots I want to start Instagram and doing that you know like my first season in golf like uh my first like junior golf season for like summer I played in like 31 tournaments and my Dad paid for like every entry fee um uh he would come out with the camera fill in my rounds and posting them on YouTube and just like literally always supporting me same with my mom um you know my first semester of college I got through that first semester and I was doing like YouTube through the full first semester and like after that kind of got into a place where I was like maybe I wasn't a huge fan of college it wasn't something I felt like was for me and I got through that first semester and I asked my parents if they were okay with me dropping out of college it took some convincing but after a while they they kind of gave me their blessing they said yeah you know you should you should drop out of college you should pursue your dreams pursue your goals and if it wasn't for even that you know them just always being so supportive because originally they were they were so like they were they were traditional they were you know go get your college education do that they you know they spent the money to get me to college they did all that um and they they were very much so like college first then focused on your career and I mean that had to have been like even for them to like get themselves to support me had to have been crazy but they they did and they 100 supported me in that decision yeah also like all the good good guys everyone watching like you guys are the ones that are making this possible and so yeah just I feel an overwhelming amount of gratitude and just it's it's really a hard feeling to to explain but I have a check written out right here um to Tammy and Gerald Clark for a hundred thousand dollars um I I honestly I thought I was gonna get through that intro without crying and I just I literally couldn't so I'm I'm also a little nervous it's gonna be cool this is this is I've never done anything like this so we'll go talk to my parents and give them this gift and yeah wow welcome back to another Garrett Clark Vlog where apparently I'm just gonna cry the whole time all right let's go keeping it simple this is probably the most exciting day of my life why am I nervous to like get is that normal I don't know you got a second yeah how's it going um you're making me oh man no this is something I've wanted to do for four years now so I have a gift for you guys it's Mother's Day Mother well it's kind of like it's an early Father's Day in late Mother's Day yeah you're making me cry me I don't even know what's going on says thank you thank you for always believing and supporting me very much always honey what the heck way too much okay what the heck son be there like that even like when I was like doing junior golf and stuff like always following me with the camera and stuff it's like that's I mean I can't even process this just being you as a gift enough for us okay is this every everything that's that early Father's Day Late Mother's Day that's gonna be good for about 20 years I think you're gonna have to tear that up though no you're cashing it that's yours that's yours I did I did all my research on like the taxing stuff and whatnot too yeah well your old man's gonna have to teach a little bit about the annual gift exclusion yeah that's what I was learning about yeah we're gonna have to really work on that think about it that'll work this hey I I was talking to Joe's tax guy he was kind of like he was walking me through it and so four years ago I was like one day if you know if I could just do that that would that'd be amazing it's way too generous no it's literally I think I don't even know what the stat is it's like the average cost of like raising a kid to even colleges absurd like the amount of money you guys have spent on me and yeah speechless I thought you were gonna come in here with a I had no idea I thought maybe like a new grill or you know no the problem the problem here is like I don't even have my own checkbook that's the first check you've ever read that is this first check that is the very first check right I think that's the first check I've actually ever written out with my hand I signed checks you've signed it for me no Bobby had to tell me put the camera on Bobby this way so the first Chad Garrett ever wrote was for a hundred thousand dollars absolutely unreal not many people could say that but he would get out we go out to the property on the hood of the car he's got the check right there and he looks at it and I'm just like all right here I wrote in some of the parts he wrote down the other parts and we got the check filled out and everything works but no honestly that moment brought me to tears as well it's absolutely amazing yeah like it's just a speechless moment such a beautiful moment Micah was over here crying too me and Michael were tearing up it's amazing moment to be a part of I don't even have my own checkbook so I had to call Dad like right as I'm pulling up to the house because we like tried everything we tried to get fake checks where I could write it without having to ask for my checkbook and I called Dad I said hey like I just need to add on like a check to the skip just a little check to add on to the gift and and I I was like is there any way you can like get it without telling Mom Tammy I gotta ask you for something but I I'm not you're not supposed to know and they stand there for a little bit and he goes it rhymes with checkbook and then I got where to look for it because and he just stick it at me for a while because it rhymes with checkbook I remember when you uh first started getting kind of popular and I think you did that ex thing whatever with um who's the guy that does trick shots down in Johnson paddy whack paddy whack yeah and I saw yeah I saw the kids that came out for that and I was like you have to learn how to like sign your name for autographs and well that's that's something that we did for pretty much the first time was our fan Meetup which also a huge shout out to everyone came out to that we were at the junior course we played a live round of golf it was Unreal to just see everyone kind of there in person it's it's one thing when you're kind of on a you know looking through a screen and whatnot and you see these numbers but when when it's there in real life it's also just it's like just very humbling experience just seeing that was amazing and all your guys's support was awesome as well so you've changed a lot of lives yeah all of you guys have I mean there are so many kids out there that especially in the last two years since you've never done it for the money and that's what's been the most awesome part of this is that God has rewarded you anyways I don't even know what to say I'm just I'm just thankful for everything thankful for you guys thankful for everyone watching like I said I I did not expect myself to just start crying like that and not be able to talk but yeah I just
