In this Hey Stranger! Series, we asked random strangers in NYC, “What does Salary Mean to You?” Here’s what they had to say. 

“My day job, or my start-up?” Our jobs not only can offer us the money, but it may also come with flexibility, culture, and an entirely different social network. In these bitesize chats with strangers on a bus, we learned what it means to earn a salary without the financial benefits from several independent contractors. WINii encourages you to reflect: Why are you working? Are you in it just for the money? 

@CocoCooperDenim is the startup founded by our first stranger.
