Does anyone ever look down on you when you tell them you Daytrade?

I’m friends with a lot of blue collar guys, especially because I worked construction before I started trading full time…I’ve pretty much stopped talking about what I do for a living with them and certain family members…It seems like if I even mention the market/daytrading, the tradesmen look down on me and assume I’m going to fail because they don’t know anything about the market. Guys who measure your intelligence by your ability to turn a wrench.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is it jealously? A stigma? I’m curious
