- I am an auditor by education, I graduated from the Accounting and Economics Department with a degree in control and audit. I had to choose: either a professional career on television and radio or work in a specialty. In accounting and the financial sector as a whole, I did not work a single day. On the fifth course, I already earned money as a radio host – and this determined my professional activity for life. At 35, I am a professional journalist, and I am extremely proud of it.

And for other personal expenses, we make a budget that often changes up or down.
