In Texas, working with your hands... you're either a male prostitute, an oil rig worker, or a ranch hand. Maybe all three.

I've never known a doctor that was even remotely hesitant about naming his/her speciality. Most doctor's I've worked with (as an army medic it was lots) introduce themselves as that specialty, not just 'a doctor'.
i.e. I'm a dermatologist, or I'm an obstetrician, and so on.

You *might* actually have a sweet job that really does pay 350k a year, but refusal to even name that job makes it very very suspect.

I'm also very skeptical how quickly you volunteered that info, unsolicited. Unless there's a big chunk of that conversation missing where someone insults your intelligence, (doubtful) you kinda name-dropped like you were morally superior.

I imagine you at the grocery store:
Shopper: Hey, could you move you cart so I can get by?
You: WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK?! I'M A YOUNG DOCTOR, I'M RICH AS FUCK! YOU MOVE!
