QT - You bet they are! My POV laying it pretty early but felt like. would absolutely go for not entertaining such people.. this might sound like Souro..our pro on board.. base your decision on stratergic analysis of wat harm can be caused by the person. Give him/her fair chance to not misunderstand the core motive. Later go for what instinct says...

I hear you and also others with a functional brain in these matters. I am working on it since past few years. Getting better. My brother had to DRILL it into my head not to share my social security number when I first arrived 🤣

Nosy people and stalkers will find information about you either by directly asking you or resorting to internet to find anything and everything about you..

What can be done? Nothing much really .. amuse them or take the fifth..😉

BTW Raj, how much do you earn😛.....j/k

What about those people who love to brag how much they made this weekend trading stocks😕 I see so many people at desi get togethers who talk nothing else but the stocks🤢 It gets sickening after a while🤢

As far as people asking me about my net worth....I answer them ..... somewhere between $5.15 to $ 5 million.....take your pick😉

😆 😆 Good answer Gauri...@ min wage and $5mil.. Btw which stock market is open for trading over the weeknd? 😉

I think there are more people who brag about their assets and achievements then people who ask about your net worth.. It is more prevalent in recently immigrated desis who are still trying to get to know each other but once they settle down into a group of people with more or less similar economic status they stop comparing and start enjoying each other more.
