Numbers the people have given you on parts & ETC that make you go WTF is this guy on?

Just wondering what some people might have told you guys, I had a guy while I was at work comment on the photo of my car on my tool box, first thing out of his mouth, so are you scrapping that? at this point I felt like saying I don't know are you scrapping this Civic I'm doing a tune-up on? when I mentioned that I'm currently restoring it, he replied with, wow you must get paid well that looks like it would be about $50,000 to restore, at which point I informed him that I actually have $170 into the car and 2 of everything, plus A welder (yes I account it as an expense of the car), also included in the $170 the car has cost me is $256 in Brake parts that leave me with a complete brand new brake system minus the front drums I'm having trouble locating.

So what un-educated numbers have you heard/ seen thrown around that made you think WTF is this guy on?
