The success Matthew has reached did not make him turn his back on his people. He is actively involved in improving the lives of little people around the world. He created a venture called Direct Access Solutions, a hospitality company which provides accessibility products to little people.
The reality show Little People, Big World is Matthew’s biggest vehicle in raising positive awareness for little people. He is an executive producer for the show which has successfully been on air for multiple seasons. Even though Amy and Matthew are divorced, they have still attempted to be respectful of each other for their children and the reality show. The show’s exposure allowed Matthew to travel the world to and meet various little people. He documented their daily lives and also offered a helping hand whenever he could.
Matthew’s motivational speaking has been inspiring and praised by many different people. He is famous for speeches which range from overcoming your shortcomings to how to improve your businesses. He has been a speaker at many corporate events and universities. He is also a member of the National Speakers Association of America. Matthew is now seen as an on demand celebrity that is often called upon for popular talk shows like like the Oprah Winfrey Show and many late night talk shows.
Matthew has even taken his motivational speaking to his books. He is the proud author of books, Against Tall Odds: Being a David In the Goliath World (1999) and Little Family, Big Values: Lessons in Love, Respect and Understanding for Families of Any Size (2007). The multiple ventures of Matthew Roloff have made him given him a strong presence which has led to a large estimated net worth to 4.5 million.
Even though Matthew has done a lot of his family, for himself, and for little people around the world, nobody is perfect. Matthew has been involved in a few legal issues and controversies. These include entering premises without permission and also driving under the influence. The trespassing incident can be forgiven but the DUI is harder to ignore. Matthew should have been more aware of how alcohol would affect his small body and his mind. Driving is already difficult enough for little people, adding a disadvantage like being drunk just makes it harder. By drinking and driving, Matthew put more at risk than just his own life. He put the lives of other people on the road at risk, he put his family at risk, and he put his fans at risk. If something tragic had happened to Matthew, he would have not been able to be a champion of little people like he has in recent years.
