  • I guess people's jobs throughout New York City by asking questions like "how much money do you make per year", "do you like your job", and "what did you want to be growing up".

    Decided to bring back the guessing concept for a video in New York City! Thought I would dabble one last time because I think the video came out pretty interesting :)

      Shan, good video. That's really crazy and sad to me how the last woman you interviewed was a fellow UA-camr and you didn't let her shout her channel out. You may have edited it out.That's low-key selfish. I'm a very successful UA-camr and I let people shout there channel out, instagram out in each and every one of my videos. It doesn't hurt your business to help support others. I'd really love to hear your reasoning behind that decision.

      Planning for retirement, or even financial freedom, is a marathon and not a race, as the saying goes. Breaking your financial independence goals into small pieces can help you stay on track while making the process a little more manageable and hopefully a little less stressful. Even if you are starting small, the important thing is to start.

      I was raised that way too, but when I think about it I'm not sure what the big deal is. I'll have to ask my dad what his reasoning was. It might be that he made more than most of my friend's parents and didn't want me saying anything and making people feel any certain way. Perhaps a lesson on not bragging too.
      But to me, I think it's healthy to openly discuss what we all make, because without the knowledge, it's a lot easier for employers to take advantage of people and pay them less than they deserve.

My point is when a ceo makes 900 times his or her hour employees wage and said employees still qualify for government assistance it's a problem, it's fleecing the tax payers like myself. We are subsidizing the ceo's profits. Nothing wrong with being wealthy, but good employees critical to their wealth need to be fairly paid, at least enough to afford basic needs .

      I’m in the creative field. For the most part the stereotype is real when it comes to a portion of “art degrees.” However, I make mid six figures and many of my colleagues do as well. The key is to position yourself as a creative that companies require. I found my path as a digital designer, creative director, and copywriter. My animation and copy skills brought in the majority of my pay and networking with clients. Many industries need creatives, and the cool thing is you can work at an agency, in-house, or for yourself. The key is finding an industry need. Currently, user interface, animation/video, web design, advertising design, media, cooywriting will bring you the most potential for earning a quality living.

      I was going to say... A I work in the engineering field to, different kind, but I noticed a trend. A lot of engineering students upon entering the workforce get smacked in the face with a reality that the field they chose is not as exciting or glamorous as they originally thought. Some may realize that they actually don't really like engineering at all. And sometimes it also depends on the work place. No mater how much you may love your chosen career subject, some places are just plain old toxic.

      @@Jimbreh not everyone's experience is the same. Just because it didn't go as well as that person in the video may have hoped for it doesn't mean you won't have luck. Sometimes the trick is finding an a job in which work environment itself is enjoyable. It doesn't matter if you're a burger flipper, or work you're "dream" career field. If the work environment is great even the burger flipper may find themselves in the most enjoyable job they've ever had just like you may find yourself in the most miserable job you've ever had if the work environment isn't healthy. If you can find a work place where the people make it a healthy and fun work environment I'm sure you'll also do just fine. Most of the time it's not about the job you do, but rather the people you work with.
