None of this B.S. about if they were true friends bla bla bla......Fuck all that...The bottom line is that this business can and does cost people friendships all the time.
So......Better to live a lie or better to be yourself and maintain fewer non-industry friends?

I think I can help you out here.
I think a person has to keep business and family seperate. Your business is your business alone and talking about it and telling other people from whom you cannot earn money has no purpose but to: a) make yourself feel proud and show off, b) satisfy someone's needless curiosity
Business is Business Family is Family.
Business is about making money. talking to family will not in anyway help you make more money, therefore in my mind it is illogical and useless.
THis is there it ends, once you realize this and you make yourself believe it, you will save yourself alot of trouble, because you are going to be in control over who finds out about what you do.
if you tell family and friends, people you don't want to know will find out becuase it's not up to you to tell but you have to trust that someone will keep his/her mouth shut. you can't trust anyone fully but yourself, especially when it comes to something like having an old fashioned family and your mother getting a heart attack when she finds out that you're a "digital pimp"
keep your mouth shut
