I get this alot and because my income is not from a regular 9-5, some chicks start spazzing out. Like are you a drug dealer (I'm not), etc.
Truth is it's from a variety of things but I usually respond with 'I'm a spy' (smirk) or 'I'm homeless, next round is on you'. I don't believe it's any of their business especially since I usually foot the bill and additionally I believe it takes away from the mystery.
GManifesto you may have some good responses for this too...

Im in DC and Ive never had a problem with jokey answers, although it helps that my real answer is pretty dhv.
I have an elaborate self-developed routine where I say Im a dolphin trainer. Girls ive banged have literally told me thats what hooked them.
Ill say rodeo clown, monkey masturbator,

The manual has 5 options
1. Truth
2. Obvious lie
3. An actual lie
4. Turn the tables
5. Ignore/plow/change topic
Integrate those options with your own personal style and preference.
The only style I seem to be able to pull off is the "selling the dream" style.
So I come at every chick with the intent that I'm going to make her my co-defendant at a bank heist trial.
With that in mind, I usually get this question when I'm suited down at a happy hour, house party, or networking event.
She is usually
- standing
- cocktail or wine glass in right hand
- left arm supporting right, arm across her hopefully flat tummy
- leaning back a bit, on a bar or wall, becuz of her heels
- purse over one shoulder
With that in mind, I close the gap.
- per community logic, you're not supposed to lean fwd, shows submissiveness
- "come closer" I say. Body language, tone, and social convention make this okay
- she moves closer, reducing her balance, submits to you
- put you mouth close to her ear, you're about to whisper a secret
- drink in your left
- put your right hand on her left arm that is folded over, or her tummy
- then reveal your secret
And from there, you can use any of the typical 5 options. You can drop bait, humblebrag..whatever.
Humblebrag - "on the cool, everyone here thinks I'm still in the entertainment industry, but I'm a lawyer now"
Obvious lie - "you don't recognize me, I'm Mark Zuckerberg"
Actual lie - "I'm a rep in the recreational pharmaceutical industry"
Et cetera.
The way I answer this question I'm trying to, bring her into my world, set up big and little bait, get her to comply, get her to submit, and break the touch barrier. And there is some slight social proof if any other chick is watching her sister break protocol.
In general, every piece of your game should be multi-layered and a part of your overall effort to bag a chick. The shoes, the car, the club, the magazines on your coffee table..the jokes you have, the stories you tell. The best after hours spot is next to your house, oh no, they're closed, I gotta little something back at my place.

My go-to "fake" profession is Dream Analyzer. Never fails to spark up a conversation and is a gold mine for getting girls to talk about dreams/build comfort.
My real job can be pretty interesting too, depending on how I explain it.

In Poland, the silly answers only made me look silly. When the women here ask what you do for a living, they really want to know.
If you don't want to be straight up, just make up something that sounds complicated and boring. Doesn't even have to make sense, just find a job that justifies your full-time traveling (if you travel).
"I own a small purchasing firm that acts as a middle man for a larger import/export firm."
"I own a small company that builds and maintains back-end infrastructure for larger e-commerce sites."
"I work as an independent financial consultant for private equity firms who specialize in buying foreign companies."
It doesn't really have to make sense. If you don't have a sketchy personality, women won't bother to ask any further questions in the beginning because they don't care. They only want to talk about themselves. Give a quick answer that sounds professional and gives her the confidence you are a professional male and then turn the conversation back on her.

Hamster: So what do you do for money
Me: I'm a business man, I have a few different interests, how about you?
Hamster: I work in HR (obviously she says this like she is the shit)
Me: Great, now we got that out of the way we can talk about more interesting things.

I design roller coasters - it has its ups and downs.
Corny as fuck. If she laughs and gets that I'm joking we'll probably get along. If she doesn't get it she's dumb as rocks and that works ok too.

A true player is like a chameleon. He adapts to the situation.
WIA's breakdown is one of the best recent posts I've seen on here.
I would also add that congruence is king. Depends on what you are wearing, and where you are:
Upscale Lounge/Wine bar- Truth connection game
Club/Bar- minibrag or outright lie,
Its really about reading the girl, and seeing how much you can get away with. The better you're dressed, the more you can get away with usually...
I usually go off of vibes. I try to mirror what the girl is giving me, and amplify it.
EDIT: AMAZING point about layering. I set this up perfectly. Down to a science. To the point where if I have a date with a Russian, I leave a book of the State Tretyakov Gallery on my coffee table. "You like that?" "Otlichna!" "I'm really into the drapery Ivanov used on his later sculptures, an echoing of the greek idealized technique..." GAME OVER.

I am Batman. It all depends on your vibe but I like telling the obvious lie because its self amuzement.
