If they care so much about my car, then they could find other agents who had luxury cars or pretend they had luxury cars.

Pretend you don't have 35k or only a fraction of that . 

I find it helps to just pretend in my mind that I am just an employee at my company.

When you live with people its a lot harder to avoid you and pretend the didn't get your legal notices.  

So we can rattle on #'s all day long and pretend all will stay static, it won't, impactors are sure to manipulate and adjust. 

However, we have a marketing industry pretending to be real estate pundits selling the idea that this is a new normal and sustainable. 

We have to make HER happy or we're both screwed (let's pretend you can't shoot escrow officers in my imaginary world that I'm making up for this example).In real life with real estate escrow officers, sometimes they end up looking like the bad guy because they hold everyone accountable to the contract and want everything in writing.

I'm not going to pretend I know what that will look like.

Don't pretend to know what you don't know.

If a claim ever came up just pretend you don't live there and it should be fine.
