Sometimes you have people that you want in your life that don't share the same fundamental ideas about money with you. Maybe they're close friends, maybe they're family.
I've found just shutting up about money is the best course of action. Maybe give input if you are directly asked to contribute something to the conversation. But for the most part just nod along. "Wouldn't be nice to win the lottery?" Just smile and nod. It's just easier to agree and move on to a more comfortable topic.
Why waste your energy trying to explain something to someone who has no interest in hearing it?
