Actors try to maximize their earnings when they can. When a movie is a hit and sequels are made the earnings for actors increases even more.

Once, a woman was stuck on the road after her car broke down and as the tow truck started towing the car away, Keanu pulled up in a Porsche and asked if he could help out. This type of things happen in horror movie, but the man inside the car was Keanu, he dropped her off to her home 50 miles out of his way and was a gentleman all the way. The woman said she hoped he would hit on her, but he just got her home and gave her his number and asked her to call if she needed any more help.

6. Humble

Toy Story 4 premiered recently, and during the world premiere when he stopped for an interview, and the interviewer asked him how he felt about being the internet's new boyfriend, Keanu just stopped and smiled and humbly just stopped talking and shut down. Humble should be replaced in the dictionary as Keanu.

5. Calmed People On A Plane

While on a flight from San Francisco to Los Angeles, the plane Keanu was in had to do an emergency landing. As you can imagine, that was a tough experience for everyone involved, but then Keanu got up and talked to people and got on a van with them to drive back from the remote airport, talking about the place they visited and also talking about his future movies, calming everyone down. If that isn't awesome, then nothing is.

Keanu was dyslexic, so he had to leave school, his dad left, his child was stillborn, his girlfriend died in a car crash, and to this day he is not involved in a serious relationship. Through all those struggles, he still managed to put a smile on his face and keep moving forward. We love Keanu, but we respect him more.

3. Lives Life To The Fullest

Most of us are bogged down at the moment, stuck between family and work that by the time we raise our head to look to our surroundings, it may feel like life passed us by when we were busy. When Stephen Colbert asked Keanu, "What do you think happens when we die?" Keanu took a deep breath and said, "I know the one who love us, will miss us." Now that is thought everyone should keep in mind.

Not worrying about death and living in the moment, her and now is what we are supposed to do like Keanu.

2. Runs Charities Without His Name Attached

You can see people running charities, talking about donating money to cause; it is a beautiful thing to give back something to the less privileged to help them out. But sometime it may feel like they are just doing it for the publicity. Not Keanu though, having donated to children hospitals and cancer research without even letting people know that it was him who was making the donations. Now, that is peak awesomeness.

1. Generous

Donating 80 million to the special effects team, taking a 2 million pay cut so the producer will have the flexibility to sign Al Pacino to play in Devil's advocate. The man is a saint and to top it all off; he gave $20,000 to one of the set workers in Matrix to help him out during a tough time for his family, during Christmas time. Generosity is why he will always be one of the awesome persons ever.

2019 is the year of the Keanu, there is nothing the man does that isn't brilliant, take a look at his life and it one of the best uplifting stories ever. Everyone should be like Keanu, it is not easy, but we will try.
