At the Atlanta International Airport, vibes of all kinds are sent through the air. Tonee "Valentine" Carter, a grooving pianist, often plays jazz as background music for travelers passing by. When one traveler heard Carter, he felt something. A motivational speaker with 170,000 Instagram followers, Carlos Whittaker asked if he could donate money for this man into a virtual tip jar. On most days Carter is lucky to get even a $100 in tips. This time, he was surprised with $85,000. The man burst into tears when he found out. A musician on stage, Carter is undergoing kidney dialysis and has other health issues. "They made me want to be a better human," Carter said. "It changed my life— not the money, but the act itself." Since then, Whittaker and Carter have become friends.
