Well, give me one accent.

Give you an accent?

If you want the African accent,

I can say anything you want.

(laughs)

(lighthearted music)

One of the big assumptions people make about me

is they see my hair and they think,

oh, look at this pothead over here,

or something like that.

I use wreck on very few occasions.

But I'm not a pothead, I'm not a wake and baker.

I'm using it for medical purposes

and when it's time to have a good time.

The assumptions that usually

people make of me is that I'm airhead.

I actually have a degree in accountancy

and I have an associated degree in acting.

So I'm a hard worker.

And check my high school records, I got all As.

There's no way I'm an airhead.

(laughs)

I am 27 years old.

For work, I am a fashion business entrepreneur.

I grew up in South Africa.

And my cultural and ethnic background is African.

I wanna say African American, but, but African, yeah.

Why would you think my name was Toni with an I?

(laughs)

I don't know, I don't know.

Maybe it was like a shorter name

but kinda something a little more unique, you know.

I like creative people.

But people that are creative in their own way.

Like, you can be an accountant,

you can be a lawyer

and you can be really creative in what you do.

I really appreciate extroverted people

that are really excited to like, dig in and ask questions

and like, get to know the people around them

and environment around them.

In a guy, I'm looking for someone who's adventurous.

Someone who likes to live life to the fullest

and likes to explore.

And someone who's loyal, obviously.

(chuckles)

(upbeat music)

If you were given a ticket to fly

anywhere in the world, you would go to Australia.

You think it is not okay to make occasional jokes

based on cultural stereotypes.

And your favorite accent to impersonate

would be anyone British.

If I could go anywhere, I'd go straight to Japan.

I think it's awesome to make occasional jokes

on cultural stereotypes,

'cause it's things that totally

define who we are from each other.

But they have to be done with tact

and, well, and there are times

where it is not at all appropriate.

But I appreciate a good joke, always.

And my favorite accent to impersonate it the African accent.

Mm, okay.

Well, give me one accent.

Give you an accent?

If you want the African accent

I can say anything you want.

(laughs)

I can say, we can go get some chicken, you and me.

It would be absolutely delicious.

I'll pay, don't you worry.

(laughing)

It wasn't...

Not the best.

It's not best, but you know,

I could help you with that.

Yeah, yeah, okay.

If you were given a ticket

to fly anywhere in the world, you'd go to Fiji.

You think it's inappropriate to make

occasional jokes based on cultural stereotypes,

but you laugh really hard when they're good and witty.

So you can appreciate them.

And your favorite accent

to impersonate is the Californian accent.

Hm.

If I was given any ticket to fly anywhere

it would have to be Japan.

Japan.

Yeah.

I love the culture there.

It looks like a trip and a half.

So I would be very excited

if I were to fly there.

I think it's not okay to make occasional...

You're right about that.

I do laugh at a lot of it's really funny.

So, you were right about that, dead on.

(laughs)

and my favorite accent to impersonate,

yeah, it is kinda the valley girl thing.

That's the first thing that I got into.

Yeah.

Oh my God, I want ice cream.

Like, I like that flavor,

that vanilla is not that great.

I love chocolate, chocolate.

(laughing)

Yeah.

It's tiring to do it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

(fast paced music)

Long term goal for a partner with me

would definitely be able to be a power couple.

I love that idea of like,

having a nice house, some property,

where friends can come and just give them the key.

So to have the capital and the creativity

to make that the beautiful, comfortable space,

I would love to have a partner to share that with.

I have a small little fashion business with my brother.

We do tie dye shirts, tie dye skirts,

tie dye dresses, just little fun, cute stuff for summer.

Because mostly in South Africa

December is a time for summer and to show some skin,

so we have a little small little business that we do together.

(upbeat music)

A good salary for a couple in the U.S.,

you got some class to you,

you got some real class to you, so I wrote 350K.

I think that you think that women

and men should both be the breadwinners.

That's what I wrote.

I circled them both.

You would consult your partner

about financial decisions over $1,600.

A good salary for a couple in the U.S.,

that was a good amount, actually.

That was a really good amount.

I says like, 20 grand a month

from each of us.

Mm-hm.

If we could like, both make 20 grand a month,

amounts to the same, I think.

Together, together?

- Each! - Each?

- Yeah, each. - Each.

You make 20 grand, I make 20 grand.

Yep, so that's like 480.

Pretty much.

Yeah.

That is a nice...

Yeah, I definitely think both

woman and man should be the breadwinner.

(ding)

Especially if we think of having kids.

You would consult with her partner about

financial decisions, I would say over 10 grand.

- 10 grand. - Yeah.

Okay.

How did you arrive at $20,000,

basically you're saying half a million dollars a year.

I thought to myself, okay, what is the number for me,

just individually without anyone to make per month?

I would be like 20 grand at basic.

That should be like, the amount gets in, 20 grand.

And then after that, if I make more, great, wonderful.

So if I'm gonna make 20 grand, you're gonna make 20 grand.

(laughs)

Okay, alright.

If not, I'll help you.

(laughs)

We can help each other.

A good salary for a couple

in the U.S. would be $20,000 each.

You think both should the breadwinner.

Both man and woman.

You would consult with your partner

about financial decisions over 10 grand.

A good salary for a couple in the U.S.,

I wrote the same for you,

but it's also what I feel.

I thought 350k was like, that's a nice lifestyle.

And that's well above the lifestyle that I grew up living.

- Right. - For sure.

I think men and women should totally have

the opportunity to be both breadwinners.

But if one is more than the other,

and the lifestyle is reached with

one of them having more financial success than the other,

I don't see anything wrong with it.

I would consult with a partner

about financial decisions over $5,000.

Let me ask you, you know,

about the whole bread winning thing.

I agree with you, actually.

But I also believe that

when two people are in a relationship

they should also push each other to be better.

Absolutely.

But if one is making more

I would want that one to help the other,

or like, help them find a way

to generate as much money as they would want.

You know, just help them out.

I would say I agree with you

that you gotta help each other out,

but if, let's say example is,

I become that director, I get a blockbuster hit,

millions of dollars.

You have a job where you're generally pulling in

a quarter million dollars a year.

And then you say, I wanna be a painter.

Maybe there's money in that, maybe there's not,

but I'd love a space to create.

If the finances are there and that is truly your dream,

I would hope that, you know, it would be more than, go paint,

but like, yeah, build your studio

and your workshop and whatever that is

to the best you can.

But support isn't always the money thing.

Yeah, no.

That's actually what I meant in a way.

But, yeah.

Cool.

Alright.

(upbeat music)

When we first met I thought,

yeah, I'd totally love to date you.

(suspenseful music)

But, after talking to you,

and hearing more than a few things

I'd definitely still love to date you.

When I first saw you I said, yes, I would date you.

But, after like talking to you,

I still decided that I will date you.

(upbeat music) (laughs)

Hooray!

I would love to date you.

(chuckles)

First date, sushi?

- Right, right. - Yeah?

Let's have some sushi and go to Japan.

Fly over to Japan.

(laughs)

Cool.

Alright.

Can I have a hug?

Yeah, let's have a hug.

Thanks.

Let's go to Japan!
