- Are these real leather?
- No. - Mm, yes.
Okay, that's what I thought.
- I'm glad that that stands out.
(laughing)
- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Hi, I'm Carter.
- My name's Braden.
- My name's Deborah.
- [Interviewer] What do you do for a living?
- Oh, I'm retired now but I used to be the curator
for the city of Seattle's art collection.
- [Interviewer] How are you with money?
- Bad, very bad.
I'm 19 and I don't have a job.
- [Interviewer] What's the most you've made in a year?
- Probably like 40k.
- Last year I made like $16,000.
- [Interviewer] Why so little?
- I'm married.
- [Interviewer] Oh, do they make good money?
- They make good money.
- Okay.
- [Interviewer] Today you're going to guess
the income of strangers.
- Okay, I can't do this.
- [Interviewer] For real?
(nervously laughs) - It's fine.
- This is the most ridiculous lineup.
How to guess this is impossible, like (laughs).
- [Interviewer] All right, let's do this.
- Hi. - Hi.
- Hm, nice shirt.
You smell pretty good too.
- I notice that as soon as you came out.
You smell nice, you smell fresh.
- Craig smells nice, by the way.
If nobody's mentioned that.
- [Interviewer] Everybody's mentioned that.
- Wow, okay.
- Is this what you wear to work?
- Yeah.
- I like this, you have a brown stripe in your shirt
and it matches your brown shoes.
Pretty coordinated, pretty organized.
- Are you single? - No.
- Does you spouse work? - No.
- Hm, do you have children? - Yes.
- Aha.
- He works in an office.
You do IT shit, we'll say he makes like 80.
- A hundred thousand?
- You're very put together, educated and creative
but not necessarily somebody who required a degree
to do what they do.
I would say that this person makes $75,000 a year.
- [Interviewer] Mm-mm-mmm.
(chuckles)
- What's up? - What's up, man?
- How you doin'?
- Good, how were you?
- I'm good.
Do you work at GameStop?
I'm just kidding, I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
(laughing) - GameStop?
- Did that hurt to get those teeth done like that?
- Oh, you can take them out.
- Oh, you can take them out? - Yeah.
- Are your teeth real gold? - Yeah.
- What about your chain, that's real?
- Yeah, of course.
- Mm, 80,000.
He's got some expensive things on him, you know?
- $20,000.
- 55,000 a year.
He's still strugglin' but gettin' there.
Perhaps you're an entrepreneur on your own.
- I love it, I love Tom.
Tom's my guy.
- Hi, Tyler. - Hello.
- Um... what's your name?
- Lucas. - Close.
- May I see your hands?
These are not workin' man hands.
These hands have not built a house,
these hands have not worked a fryer, I don't think.
- You might work at a golf course or a gym,
making $25,000.
- You work in the school library and make 42,000 a year.
That's my guess.
- When was the last time you used a coupon?
- I use coupons every time I grow grocery shopping.
- Are those your eyelashes?
- Do they look like my eyelashes?
- No. - No, they're not mine.
- Are they extensions?
- No, just glued them straight on.
- Okay, 25, no, I'm kidding.
(laughing) I'm just kidding.
- 30,000 and you're in the service industry somewhere.
- I'm gonna say curve ball,
you're probably a stay at home mom.
Zero on the income.
I'm not gettin' a vibe on a career out of this
so I'm gonna guess zero.
- I'm Deborah. - Mia.
- I needed you this morning to do my makeup
'cause I'm really bad and you look beautiful.
- What'd you go to school for?
- I went to beauty school.
- Beauty school, okay, okay.
20,000, 15,000.
- I think she makes $90,000 a year.
You look like you have expensive tastes.
I mean, I know the jeans are ripped
but they're very nicely ripped so.
- Hi. - Hi.
- What's your name? - Claire.
- Claire looks really pretty.
Those are really nice shoes, this is very well put together.
I might guess that this might be
what you wear to the office.
- How much is a bus ride around here?
- Hm, $2.50.
Why did you ask that?
- Oh, I think people who ride the bus
tend to be careful with their money.
And you seem put together and careful with your money.
- Okay.
- I could say you work in a law office, maybe.
The shoes are what's throwing me.
They're sexy heels.
Meow. - Yes.
We would have so much fun.
(nervously laughing)
- Wow, I just changed all of my guessing right there.
(laughing)
I'm gonna guess that you're a bartender
and you make 35,000 a year.
You definitely work around people
and you have a job where you give back energy
as much as you get so that's why I guess what I guessed.
- You're a simper.
- [Interviewer] What do you think she does?
- Paints, pastels.
- You kind of are giving me a teacher vibes,
so maybe like 25,000.
- Fuck, 20,000, $19,000.
$20,000, I don't fucking know.
I can't judge this.
This is just giving me a headache.
- [Interviewer] All right, we've got one more.
- Hi. - What's up?
How you doin'?
- I'm good, what's your name? - AJ.
- You have a few things that tell me
that your style's a little bit alternative.
Well, you've got the gold details, you've got the jewels,
you got the designer belts.
Hm, the shoes and socks are throwing me off though.
May I look at your socks?
- I would rather not.
- Oh, see--
- They don't match, it was a last minute effort.
It was a last minute effort.
- Its the little things you can spot.
You do temp jobs and you make 45,000 a year.
- I think he makes a lot of money, a hundred thou.
- 18. - 18?
- 18,000? (laughing)
Bruh.
- Maybe more. - Maybe.
- We'll put you in a cool 30.
- What do you think I do?
- Sales. - Sales?
- In sales.
- If I'm makin' 30,000 in sales, I'm definitely failing.
- [Interviewer] How was that?
- That was really tough.
- I think I did so bad.
I just did not get any of them right
and I know that for a fact.
- [Interviewer] I'm gonna bring everybody out
and we'll see what happens.
- Okay.
- [Interviewer] They've come out in order
from least to most.
- Okay. (laughing)
- [Interviewer] Now you get to meet them.
- Now I get to meet them.
- Hey. - Hi.
- So I guessed that you were maybe a bartender
that made 35,000 a year?
- Yeah.
- And you're gonna tell me that's
totally wrong. - Not the case.
You got my character right but I'm actually a porn star
and professional dominatrix.
- Oh, I was gonna guess exotic dancer
but I didn't want to feel like I was pigeon-holing you.
- I'm a porn star and a professional dominatrix.
- I love you.
(laughing)
- That's great.
- That's awesome, do you like it?
- I love it.
Why do you love it so much?
- Because everyone's trying to shit on people
in the sex industry and I'm not for it at all.
I will not stand for that.
It is a job, people need it, people will pay for it.
What the fuck, you know?
I'm so happy for you.
- Is there a specific type of person
that likes to be dominated by you?
- Mostly white men, for sure.
That's how it fell into my lap is white guilt
so it's a whole dynamic for sure.
- Give it to me. - Yes, yes.
- I was close, you said?
- You were really close.
You said 55k and it's around like 50k.
- Okay, are you an entrepreneur?
- I'm a mental health clinician.
- Whoa, very cool.
Wow, that is not at--
- Yeah, a little curve ball for you.
- No, that's cool.
- I'm a mental health clinician.
- No shit? - Yeah.
- Not your typical--
- I would never have picked that.
I like the fact that you don't look like
a mental health technician.
- Yeah, I still get it everyday
and I've been one almost three years now.
- All right, AJ. - What's up, pimp?
- How's it goin'? - Chillin', chillin'.
I'm a ride-share driver.
- A ride-share driver, okay, that's good.
- So I make around 60 a year.
- Wow, that's better than I would expect
from a ride-share driver.
- I just drive a lot.
I drive all day everyday. - Grind it.
Got to treat yourself with the designer goods
once in a while.
- Oh, I just wore this just because I just tried
to throw everybody off.
(laughing)
I wouldn't drive like this.
Somebody would try to jack me then I have to
Stephen Siegel them or somethin'.
Show off some other skills.
- Can I request you next time I take an Uber?
- You gon tip me?
- Of course, I always tip.
- All right, 'cause sometimes,
some people, they don't believe in tippin'
and I don't, you know--
- I'm a good tipper, by the way.
- Do you take back your answer?
- What did I arrive at?
- 30k, you said maybe 25 since I glue my eyelashes on.
(laughing) - Oh my god.
- Oh, he's a monster.
Oh my god.
What do you do, tell me about yourself.
- I'm in property management, sell apartments to people.
So I make 80k a year. - Damn.
- Real estate baroness, yes!
How did you get involved with that?
- Last year I was a barista
and I just randomly came up on this job.
Took my income from 35k to 80k.
- Wow, well congratulations. - Thank you.
- I think I gave you kindergarten teacher.
What did I say, like, 25,000.
Was I right? - No.
- Damn. - Very off.
I am a travel blogger and a part-time barista
making around 15,000 a year.
- So you make income on your travel blog itself?
- I make no income on my travel blog--
- I know that feeling.
- The majority of my income
from being the part-time barista.
- Do you travel on a budget usually?
- Oh, definitely.
Like hostels, sleep in my car in a Walmart parking lot--
- So it's the experience for you?
- Yeah, exactly.
The barista job is just to give me healthcare
and 401k and--
- Okay, this is a good barista job.
- I know.
- All right, tell me about yourself.
Tyler, no. Lucas, Lucas.
- That was the name that he made up for me
when I walked out here.
(laughing) - You racist.
- I'm a jazz musician
and I work at the University of Washington
as a graduate assistant teaching jazz history.
- How much money do you make?
- About 35. - Okay, all right, damn.
Do you make a lot from playing music?
- No, it's maybe like two grand, at that.
- Yeah, damn, I wish it was more.
- So how far off was I on your profession?
- Pretty far.
- I think I guessed 75,000 a year doing PR
or something like that. - 100k.
- Oh yeah, yeah.
No, I was trying to get her into triple digits.
That's good.
- So what do you do?
- I'm actually a bud tender/dancer and model.
- I think you all look like bartenders by the way.
- No, bud tender. - Oh, a bud tender?
- I sell weed. - Oh, got you.
- So do you smoke weed?
- Um, yeah.
- Well, I can always take care of if you need some.
- Oh, okay, we'll talk.
- Okay, last but not least.
- [Interviewer] The real baller.
- The real baller.
- You said I did some IT shit and I make 80k a year,
which is pretty accurate.
I make actually 120k a year.
- Hey, I was actually close.
I think that's the only thing that I was close to guessing.
- So I am a software delivery manager.
- Software delivery manager,
so you're making sure the product gets done and delivered?
- Exactly.
- Okay, definitely with the smelling nice
and the good accessories, that was--
- This is pretty much a basic white guy in IT starter pack.
- Do you like your job?
- Not everyday.
But it pays very well and I actually work with a lot
of really cool people.
- Thank you and sorry I was so wrong.
- It's all good.
- [Interviewer] Thank you.
- Even though I guessed every single thing wrong
I had so much fun creating fake lives for these people.
- [Interviewer] What was the biggest surprise?
- The porn star.
I mean, who knew?
- Thanks everybody!
- [Interviewer] That is a wrap.
- Aw, congrats guys.
