A short transcript excerpt from a YouTube video (Ramit Sethi interviewing Monique) about Monique’s experience appearing on the Netflix show How To Get Rich. Monique describes initial resistance to production’s review of her finances, conflict with production (even blocking them), and that surviving the pressure made her stronger.
Monique, how about you? What surprised you about the experience that.
Y' all actually was all in our business? What do you mean? They need all of my account information. Well, they gonna get what I give them because that's not none of their business. Oh, gosh. I was so difficult behind scenes. I didn't think that you were actually gonna come in and, like, really look over things, and you did. And I think just, like, the pressure of the show, I ignored everybody. I didn't like you. I didn't like production. No. I think I blocked production at one point. But I think that put in this position made me stronger because I survived it, you know.
I wasn't ready to give up on it.
