Yael Hanover: Totally on Purpose

you'll pardon me because um i'm using notes you're gonna see me like looking down but um i have adv and six kids so i'm about as adept at memorization as sausages are and you know everybody knows that when it comes to meat products fact retention sausages are the worst anyways um i'm an only child and uh i'm introverted i love quiet i love solitude so obviously having a bunch of kids and homeschooling them was just a natural choice for me um so when i tell people about my career and believe me lucrative it is not but a career it totally is when i tell people about my homeschooling career i get a lot of oh my gosh like i could never i could never do that and like i mean like okay tina like i could never be an actuary but we all do our thing right um i do i hear it a lot and and let me tell you nothing nothing you know really get you like there's there's one thing that never ever gets old it's being told how miserable your life sounds to somebody else um to me though it's completely amazing um i mean it's also completely insane kanai nahara my oldest is 14 and my youngest is three so at any moment i could be teaching gamora or like making play-doh shapes or anything in between or you know both so i'm like call the home air if we roll it in a bowl and then we squish it it's a pancake so one of the upshots of homeschooling like a whole flamboyance of jewish children is saving six figures a year right but you know other stuff isn't free so one of us has to still bring in six figures a year so my husband really needs something to feel like he's contributing so he has you know his cute little job you know like to help with the expenses it's adorable um it makes him feel really good you know like he's helping out with the household um he spends a lot of time in the office even now see he's a boss so he has everyone else working from home so that he can go to the office because nobody is working from this home it's not happening i even considered filming this from like a neighbor's yard anyway he works a lot right but he wants to be engaged with parenting so since he can't do it himself he'll remind me to do all of these like basic things it may sound and feel like he's nagging but it's his way of helping so he asked me if i'd change the kids for bed this was a great opportunity for me so i said no i changed them for euros but the good news is it's really quiet here and now we're rich my husband is a very very practical person he sees what needs to be done and he makes sure that he does it or you know reminds me to do it um and nothing nothing gets in the way not food not sleep like we could be like hiking out in the wilderness and i could misstep be like hanging off of a cliff screaming for him and he would come running to my aid to the edge of the cliff look over the edge and be like hey you're gonna do the floors later right i'll go get the rope he would never he would never because we don't we don't have any any hills or cliffs in florida and anyways we're not one sporty um but florida you might have heard that florida is starting to open up again we're moving to phase one not necessarily because our corona cases have gone down but people in florida are getting like really bored and i don't know if you've ever googled florida man before but boredom here is dangerous like it's deadly also hilarious i'm getting waved at so i think i'm about to move to my last my last joke here all right here we go moving on the last one um so this is hard it's really hard doing this without an audience because i'm used to like people laughing at me but you know sometimes it can be hard to do this with an audience like this one time i was performing and like front and center was this one lady and like every joke every single joke her response was like i brought out my tried and true best one-liners like the funniest never fail masterpieces oh the elephant joke [Music] so finally you know i i pick her out i like i look her straight in the eye and i'm like lady like this whole time i'm doing my best i'm getting nothing from you so listen like i've only got one more thing to say to you hamako meanwhile
