Why it worked
This format works because it taps into natural human curiosity about others' lives, especially finances. The direct question about salary creates immediate intrigue and relatability, as many people are curious about what others earn. The interviewee's initial reluctance to share his salary, followed by a rough estimate, adds a layer of authenticity and humor. The discussion about money's role and investment further engages viewers interested in personal finance and real estate.
