What do people say when you tell them you trade?


What are people’s first reaction when you tell them you’re a stock trader etc.

Curious to know.
It's usually interest or fascination.

Unless they also trade. Then it's a deep dive into what instruments you trade. And depending on the person sometimes a discussion about techniques and theories.
Interesting question! Some people say you are just wasting your time as well as capital and other who know how that this is leading market after stock market they appreciate.
I don't go into any details or discussions with anyone who isn't a trader also.
