00:00:00.000 So I just put my six-figure corporate job with no backup plan. I don't have another job lined up.
00:00:05.260 I don't have a big dream business ready to go. I just knew I couldn't keep living the same day
00:00:09.940 on repeat anymore. What up guys? Welcome to my reaction series. So women have a tendency to not 1.00
00:00:15.520 appreciate anything. I mean, we don't appreciate our husbands. We don't appreciate our kids.
00:00:20.200 I mean, we just have it like, that's like our default is just not appreciating shit. 0.99
00:00:25.400 And this extrapolates to not appreciating jobs that pay us a lot of money. 0.98
00:00:31.060 You know, the men have to go out to work and they get a job and it's really hard and it
00:00:35.980 pays nothing.
00:00:37.160 And women get jobs that we're doing very little and we're paid a lot. 1.00
00:00:41.240 And then we still have the audacity to quit and complain.
00:00:44.600 So that's really what we're going to get here is women that made a lot of money and they're 1.00
00:00:48.660 going to say that they're really stressed out.
00:00:50.760 And I want you guys to really not buy this.
00:00:52.920 remember our mothers and grandmothers um i mean they lived on like i just can't imagine any job
00:01:00.120 is harder than my grandma having nine kids on a farm and also working part-time 0.99
00:01:07.080 i don't know like maybe i'm wrong but i just i don't really women always say they're really 0.99
00:01:12.760 stressed out and it's never that difficult so i quit my six figure job a few months ago to just
00:01:19.720 do whatever i want and i just want to show you guys something you see my hairline it's not the
00:01:25.560 fullest this right here let me show you something this was my hairline literally right after i quit
00:01:34.200 my job when i first started making videos about me quitting my six-figure job in cyber security to
00:01:43.320 travel become a model and an influencer and all these things i had a lot of negative comments okay
00:01:48.520 so i quit a 200k job because of stress i don't just don't she doesn't seem like she has the
00:01:54.360 personality to make it but we'll see um and then a lot of people who were just like basically
00:01:59.720 saying that i was stupid for doing that right and i just feel like if you don't understand what it
00:02:06.980 is to work in corporate america today being underpaid because even though i was making six 0.62
00:02:11.560 figures i was still severely underpaid um you would always think they're underpaid don't believe
00:02:17.040 that um and i was working alongside the government and people yelling at me every day me crying every
00:02:22.560 day i was again women go into a man's world and then demand it be feminine basically using my 1.00
00:02:28.080 hair in chunks like i have so many baby hairs from where like my hair has finally been growing
00:02:33.520 and i was inflamed i had a thyroid problem and i just was so unhappy like so unhappy
00:02:42.000 and fast forward now it's been about uh let's see july august september october november like
00:02:52.300 five months my hair is growing back i've traveled to so many places i'm so happy yes my savings
00:02:58.280 are dwindling which is something that yeah so she quit to spend her money concerns it's going 1.00
00:03:04.120 to be a whore essentially i mean we know what women do when we travel and i'm looking for 0.99
00:03:08.060 a job it's gonna she's gonna regret doing that but I'm looking for just a simple job where I 0.97
00:03:17.120 don't have to do much and I could still have a work-life balance I just wanted to provide this
00:03:22.400 update because I think a lot of people were intrigued about how I got my cyber security job
00:03:26.940 and I get that because I never went to school so me being able to get such a high-paying job
00:03:33.020 was something that like a lot of people are intrigued by and I've made a lot of videos
00:03:36.760 but just remember if you are not happy in your job then let it go it doesn't matter how much it pays
00:03:45.400 you um have a plan you can let it go but have a plan and we never have a plan we just do it
00:03:51.380 um okay let me continue here I quit my six-figure job as a financial advisor to start my own business
00:03:57.220 and post videos about financial education on TikTok. I want to share a little bit about why
00:04:02.800 I made this decision and maybe you'll get to know me a little bit more. Obviously, every job isn't
00:04:07.600 perfect, especially when you work at a large corporation. There's a lot of things that happen
00:04:11.860 that you don't have any influence or control over. Yeah, again, so we're very controlling people and
00:04:17.540 we want to have a say in every decision. And it's very difficult for us to be like, all right,
00:04:21.520 it's out of my control. So we don't do well when we go to corporate America because remember,
00:04:26.820 She used to be a pretty young girl and they're just giving things all the time and they get a say in every decision.
00:04:32.700 So going to corporate America where you have to get things done, usually women just bang the boss because that's easier than like giving up control. 1.00
00:04:42.280 They're like, I'll bang the boss and get some control.
00:04:44.580 And you just kind of have to suck it up because you're a part of that larger corporation.
00:04:47.960 I really wanted to build something for myself.
00:04:51.320 So I wanted the experience of being an entrepreneur and really working towards certain goals and
00:04:58.360 pushing myself out of my comfort zone.
00:05:00.560 I knew it was going to be tough because I wasn't going to have any sort of income in
00:05:04.420 the beginning.
00:05:05.140 It was hard quitting a job where I was making a lot more money than I ever thought I would
00:05:09.280 make.
00:05:09.720 Also wanted to make financial education and finance more accessible.
00:05:15.380 So I hit this wall where I realized I was only pretty much working with people that had maybe around a million dollar net worth, which is great.
00:05:25.280 And I had a lot of experience being able to help them.
00:05:27.940 But what I was really missing that I was really passionate about was helping people that were just starting.
00:05:32.820 So all of these people that had a million dollars when they're retiring probably had some sort of help or some sort of advice from someone when they were younger to tell them to start investing, to tell them what to invest in, or to just educate them on how to not basically ruin themselves financially.
00:05:50.480 share all of the experience that I had managing over $600 million in client assets. I wanted to
00:05:57.100 take all of that experience and boil it down and make it helpful for people that maybe don't have
00:06:02.580 the means to access that sort of information. Here I am and it's been about four months or so
00:06:08.720 since I quit my job and I couldn't be more happy with my decision. So hopefully you follow along.
00:06:13.960 All right. Here we got, I quit my nine to five with no backup plan. So, so I just put my six
00:06:21.760 figure corporate job with no backup plan. I don't have another job lined up. I don't have a big
00:06:27.540 dream business ready to go. I just knew I couldn't keep living the same day on repeat anymore.
00:06:33.780 This is me figuring it out from scratch.
00:06:36.060 all right here's another one i quit my six-figure job don't look at me like that that's all you
00:06:48.940 guys have been telling me to do and i'm not good with peer pressure i'm just kidding about the
00:06:53.860 peer pressure i've been wanting to quit my job for a lot of these women there's going to be women it 1.00
00:07:01.360 works out for yours truly but mind you i went through two years of bullshit to make this work 0.67
00:07:07.500 out and god only knows the future right but most women this is not going to work out for if you 1.00
00:07:13.740 have a six-figure job as a woman they're making ai to replace it fast so i mean i would just keep 1.00
00:07:22.300 that as long as you have it long time and it finally just got to the point where i wonder if
00:07:27.020 jobs try to make people quit like you know how boyfriends when they don't like their girlfriend
00:07:31.980 anymore will try to get her to dump him i wonder if jobs do that with employers i is like i just
00:07:38.220 did not doing well because of how drained i've been i was able to set myself up with a nice
00:07:46.300 little nest egg and i got a few little little other things that i'm trying to dabble in so
00:07:51.260 cross your fingers for that i can't be unemployed forever and realistically
00:07:54.940 back office banking has always paid me very well so eventually i do see myself working my way back 1.00
00:08:01.740 in and truthfully 25 year old me is pissed and i'm sure some of you are like you're an idiot 0.98
00:08:07.520 maybe but i needed to see myself out before i caught an hr case all right guys um oh no oh no 0.98
