Default Re: Answering questions about poker while traveling (tl;dr)

I've travelled a fair amount and same deal, people are very curious and ask lots of questions

I'm impressed you are still happy to answer their questions, I'm quite sick of it. I prefer to now just tell them I'm a college student studying buisness

yeah, with cute girls i give joke answers, like "i'm a prostitute," which led to this exchange:
girl: so what kind of work do you do?
me: i'm a prostitute
girl: oh. in the butt, or on top too?
me: both. i go with whatever i can get.
girl: you're out of shape for a prostitute.
/girl takes sip of beer
me: yeah but now i'm on a strict regimen of pilates and kegel exercises.
/girl laughs and spits beer all over my shirt

i've barely played at all. internet connections in europe tend to suck and i time out constantly on most connections, even in internet cafes. i've basically been on vacation for the past 2 months and my poker game is probably really bad at the moment.

question that stumps me:

'how much do you make?'

I'm still not really sure how to handle this one.
obv its rather general already, but it's not like i would go:

me: what do u do?
him: i'm a lawyer
me: how much do u make?


people seem a lot more at ease asking me my annual income, i guess because it doesnt really sound like a real way of making a living.
