00:00But if I am helping somebody else make millions of dollars, and I'm not fulfilled, I can't give you five days a week in the office.

00:06He's not giving it to you, so don't ask.

00:08I'm allergic. I'm allergic. Achoo! Achoo, I'm allergic.

00:12Bless you.

00:13Thank you!

00:14Hey guys, what's up? It's your girl, Jazalina.

00:17And today, we want to find out if people prefer to work from home and make 80K, or do they want to work from the office and make six figures?

00:25Let's find out.

00:26This is a great question. I definitely work from home. I do not like to be confined to four walls.

00:31I am a millennial creative. You can do anything from your phone or your computer, so I will take that.

00:38For me, I'm going to stay home and make 80K.

00:40Going into the office, sometimes I have to sacrifice a lot of my self-care, a lot of my routine.

00:44I feel like working from home, I'm able to use that time to do some of those personal things to really tend to myself and take care of myself.

00:50But also, I have more time to do freelance projects on the side, in my lunch, my spare time.

00:55So, that 20K that I might, it might look like I'm missing, I'm really not because I have time to use that to make even more than 20K.

01:01You're already giving money.

01:03Yes.

01:03Ching, ching, ching.

01:04Ching, ching, ching.

01:06All right, so now, are you going to take 80K working from home, or do you want the six figures working from the office?

01:12You know what? I would say the 80K working from home.

01:17The reason being is because I feel like you could do multiple things if you're at home and make that 80K multiply.

01:25If you're in the office and you're making a set salary in the office, from 9 to 5, you're locked into an office.

01:32Let's not talk about commute time.

01:34Because LA, if you got to be working at 9, baby, you got to get up at 6, leave at 7, and hopefully make us work at 9 o'clock.

01:4180K, I don't want to be by y'all.

01:43Now, who's by y'all?

01:45I would like to be by myself on Zoom. Yeah, I don't...

01:49Are you on camera on Zoom, or are you not showing your face?

01:52I'm on camera off unless it's very required.

01:55Work from the office, make 100K.

01:57That was easy!

01:58I'm making the drive, easy.

02:00Well, how cute is the office? Is it a vibe? Is it a place that I want to go to on the daily?

02:04Because I don't like being in my house all the time, you know?

02:07If it's a cute office, and it's a good workforce, you know, love co-workers and stuff, it might be a vibe.

02:13A little bit more money, you know, I'll do it.

02:14I'm going to work at the office and make 100K because I'm going to take that money, flip it, and then get my own at-home business going on.

02:21Okay?

02:24For me, I'd say 100K working from the office.

02:26Especially if you got good community at the office.

02:29I think the 80K is dope if your office is toxic and you work better on your own.

02:34So, like, peace of mind is important versus the money that you ain't going to be able to spend because you're stressed out.

02:39So, I take the 100K right now where I'm at in life, yeah.

02:42I love that for you. Good answer!
