What do you do when people find out you're a baller?



WAIT - So real ballers NEVER have to associate with people outside their socioeconomic class?

Okay that makes sense then.

Because I'm sure legitimately wealthy people never accidentally incur the jealousy of smaller people from time to time. Nor do they attract groupies. Ever.
 
I'm far from a baller but I'm financially secure/independent, debt free, and living beneath my means so that I can save a shitload.

I think some of the jealousy and dumb comments you get are just out of ignorance.

I trade stocks and any time I mention it, people talk about how shady wall street is and how it's such a bad area to be involved in. My returns suggest differently.

I don't make enough from internet marketing yet to even mention it in a convo, but I'm guessing it's the same type of deal where you mention working online or owning websites and you have to field numerous uneducated questions/comments. Not worth the trouble. OP- start telling people you're an astronaut or something lol

when people talk like that.......... i ask them if they heard of that Jay Z song "I got 99 problems and a b*tch ain't one" ........ then just walk way
 
You shouldn't bring up money in a conversation with someone you don't know quite well. Nor discuss any form of "success" you've had, otherwise you come off as a tool.

That doesn't mean if you have to lie but always play thing down. Humility is very important in building lasting connections.

If you want to be treated normally, you have to act normally at least for the time it takes someone to build their first impression of you.

Edit: I'm not a "baller", just know a few
 
First off you talk to much. You should be the one asking questions and him telling you how much he makes.


Years ago a friend of mine would go to the bar and show chicks his 1099

The first time you meet the wrong "stranger" in bar and come off this way and you end up going home in stitches, robbed of your wallet and watch, and your cell phone smashed, tell me if you change your mind good sir.

You seem to forget, this was where the OP meet this guy. I would react differently and gave him different advice if this was one of his long time, arm chair quarterback friends from college.
 
Next time you are with a chick, tell her you have to go to an ATM. Withdraw some cash and say "Yes" for receipt. Step away before the receipts prints and re-tie your shoes. When your receipt pops out, kindly ask her to grab it. She will likely glance at it before handing it over, especially if you are busy looking your shoes.

Step 5: Get it in.
