She told Torres Pit that she used to hold a regional position at a job that paid her $20,000 a month but she chose to leave it to start her own business.
Perplexed, he asked her why she would ditch something that lucrative.
She replied with the question: "Do you want to die in peace or die having money you can't use?"
Torres Pit claimed that was the "best $100 lesson" he has ever had.
Netizens were divided over their take on the woman. There were some who speculated that she had walked away from a toxic working environment while others questioned why she was hard up for $100 if it were true that she used to earn $20,000 per month.
Whatever the reason, the woman walked away from the interview $100 richer.
