    So you build hundreds of set a year, are a full time youtuber, have a day job, built multiple startups, won Lego Masters and graduated college on time? No wonder you only get 5 hours of sleep a night. 😂

I’m currently in College and hope to be as successful as you one day. Whatever happens in your future, I pray that you stay successful with your career. Also, as an African American from Kenya, thank you for your support. You have no idea how much you’ve helped these kids. You are so awesome.

    Chris: Thanks for continuing to share, here and everywhere you touch. Good luck with AUGR, your New York experiment, your philanthropy with Balay Pasilungan, and, of course, your LEGO pursuits.
    I started out as a LEGO fan who liked your Duckbricks content, but I think I’ve become a Christopher Lee fan who is happy to hear about all your pursuits. I’m a 70 yr. old American guy who has been a LEGO fan since the LEGO/Samsonite era when I was a kid. (You are the second Christopher Lee I’ve followed as a fan, being a devotee of the late British actor since his Hammer films days. Are you a fan of that “Chris Lee” as well, perhaps?) Keep doing what you do so very well - all of it.

Keep that distance and community in mind, local grass roots orgs and just giving it directly to ppl are always best.

    Is there an easier way to do this other than breaking everything down and putting them back in the OEM boxes? It’s going to take up so much space & time it’s not funny. Then it’ll take another year rebuilding everything back to the way it was.
