Funny thing is the opposite is true too; if you make less than others, at some point people expect an explanation.<p>__________<p>Even more bizarrely, if for some reason people believe you&#x27;re doing &quot;nothing&quot; they rapidly switch to projecting their expectations of what doing nothing means to them.<p>In the end, it&#x27;s just hard for people to understand that some people are different than them and the answer is not to suggest everyone be the same.
