That's a gift. Maybe he could share the secret or give classes? He doesn't have to charge, it could be his contribution to ER'dom ..He can look busier doing nothing than just about anyone I know

Very true. I think that our natural initial reaction is to feel like our work ethic is being scrutinized, but in reality the questioner is just trying to square their situation with our own.
But this is really about your reaction, not theirs. It really shouldn't matter much how others react, you should be able to take it in stride given the surprise element above.
We've all experienced it, many resort to euphemisms or changing the subject if it bothers them. If that works for you, go for it.
I'll see what I answer on this trip.
Europeans don't ask that question. It's them pesky Americans....

It is better than walking in and dealing face to face with game players, but you can get Truecar price information (for free), then negotiate down from there, if you have the patience. After all, if you take the Truecar price, they have to pay Truecar a portion of the total.I will never buy a car directly from a dealership again after using True Car through Amex. https://amexnetwork.truecar.com/mai... car&mp_mt=e&gclid=CLy3hYGS48UCFQOUfgodqiwAKQ .
Costco also has an auto buying service. My employee saved over $3K from the best price he found at three dealers and they even offered to deliver the truck to his home.
