I (37M) recently came into almost $3mil from a family inheritance and am able to basically never work again (no kids, house paid off, car paid off). I live humbly. If you were to see my house and car, there's no way you'd think "that guy's a millionaire." And I'd like to keep it that way. I've got a great financial advisor, CPA, and budget. That said, I have no idea what to tell people what I do for work now (namely women I'm dating). I don't want to say "live off inheritance" as that sounds...IDK...weird. But I also don't want to lie. It's always felt a bit uncouth to talk about finances anyway, but in the dating world at my age, it's an important factor. I know I'm not the only one here who's been in this situation, so I'd love any advice or suggestions to navigate this! Thanks so much.

EDIT: Wow. I did not expect this post to garner so much attention. Thank you to those who offered some actual solid advice--it's much appreciated! I'd like to clear some things up/give a bit more context.

• I have a very active social life filled with myriad hobbies, so I'm not just sitting around doing nothing (and I absolutely agree that doing nothing is unattractive no matter your bank account). I also volunteer and plan on starting a foundation to honor this relative.
• I'm 100% not a "so what do you do?" first date kind of guy. It's trite and boring. That said, I'm looking for something real and longterm, which means that I'll inevitably have to divulge how I finance my travels, hobbies, dinners, etc.
• I grew up poor. My father left when I was a baby and my mom often worked two jobs. This relative was someone I stayed with in the summer and grew close to. Everyone in the family thought they had some money, but no one really knew how much because they were quite frugal and never really worked. This was a big surprise for me as well as for others in my family. This world is very new to me.
• Finally, thanks for the laughs...from the sarcastic and humorous all the way to the haters <3
