Someone smiles and asks, "So how much are you making now?" It sounds like interest. It isn't. In this video, 5 questions people who envy you will ask, what each one is really after, and exactly what to say instead, using ideas from the philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer.

It's a modern application of ideas he wrote about, including his manuscript The Art of Being Right (also known as Eristic Dialectic), which catalogues 38 tricks people use to win arguments without having the truth on their side, and his writing on how to live well. This video is for general information and reflection. It is not psychological or professional advice. Not every difficult question is manipulation.
