Latina in the United States reveals how much she earns with two jobs: "Does that seem like little to you?"

One of them works as a hostess in an American restaurant, where she does 30 to 40 hours a week.


A TikToker known as lauracruzz47 has left many thinking after revealing how much money she earns working two jobs in the United States. In her post, which has already garnered over 4,400 likes, she asked her followers, "Does it seem like a little to you?" after disclosing how much she is able to save weekly.

Lauracruzz47 explained that her main job is as a hostess in an American restaurant, where she works between 30 and 40 hours a week. With this job, she earns about 650 dollars. However, she also has a second job on weekends as a waitress in a Latin restaurant, where her income depends on tips. Despite being in the low season, she claims that with both jobs, she manages to make between 800 and 900 dollars a week. But of course, it's not always easy. Tips vary depending on the season, and in Florida, things get complicated when there are fewer tourists.

One of the things that has made the video even more interesting are the comments from other users who have shared their own experiences in the workforce in the USA. Some reacted with amazement, like one who said: "I make 1500 in 26 hours God, I am blessed"; while others made it clear that earning well is not everything: "You earn well, but the time will take a toll on your health. And then there will be no money, and we lost our health...".

Some people also showed curiosity, wanting to know how it is possible to maintain that pace in such an expensive country: "And how much does it cost you to get by there?" asked a concerned user. Others, on the other hand, share the harsh reality of their day-to-day lives: "My brother-in-law earns 1200 a week working 70 hours... but he does about 70 hours..." one of the followers pointed out.

In the meantime, other users took advantage of Lauracruzz's story to seek motivation or resolve their doubts. One comment stood out: "You're encouraging me to look for a second job," and another added: "How does one get a job in the USA?"

The video by @lauracruzz47 has sparked a debate about the harshness of having multiple jobs to survive in the United States. One user shared what she experienced when she had a similar schedule: "I worked 12 hours in one place and then another 4 in another... I literally couldn't handle it, it was weakening me."
