You say, ‘ Well I’m fine’, as an answer to wish, ‘How do you do’. Is that so?
“The average person tells 4 lies a day, and 1460 a year. A total of 88,000 by the age of 6. And the most common lie is I’m fine.” says a survey. What you have to say friend?

Nothing is said about "Good " or "Bad" about using "I'm fine." What all it said was we will not say I'm bad, instead we say I'm fine, which is far from truth
