Are you comfortable when people asks you how much you are making?

I simply don't tell how much I am earning. Aside from it is none of his/her business I found it rude to ask somebody how much he/she is making. So rudeness begets rudeness. Although there are times we discuss matters about our remuneration at work but then it is a different scenario because it is an "official" discussion. Those who ask about another person's income simply because he wanted to compare might not be aware that other people find such question improper. Maybe he/she has no bad intention but still, sometimes we have to be sensitive of other people's views and feelings. Unless, you are talking to close friends or to a confidante, then it is okey to discuss money matters but talking about it with someone who is not even that close to you is a big no no.

Yes I too hate.I consider such questions as vulgar curiosity questions. No one has got the right to ask such questions.But still people ask such questions.The old saying goes as "Never ask the age of a woman and pay of a man". It is unnecessary and at the same time embarrassing .It shows the meanness of the person who asks such question.Then the next question is as to how to answer them.One way is to pretend that you did not clearly hear that question. Secondly you can put a similar question to him or her.As I see with my experience the best way is to smile at the person and divert the attention to some other topic. If she or he is a shrewd person they understand that you are not willing to tell them about what are making.Sometimes they persist in getting an an answer.In such a situation You can tell some figure but not the actual amount.It all depends upon the nature of the person and his financial status. some casually ask such questions without meaning anything.If it is asked with a motive you should adopt one of the above methods......OK?

I would answer the question when it comes to online earnings, but offline earnings I may not. It would all depend on who asked and what my attitude at the moment was like as to whether I would answer the question or not.

I don't like it when people ask me this question. I don't know why. My parents won't even ask me this question, but some of the friends dare to ask this question. I think nobody will ask me this question at this moment because I make zero money. I don't have a job right now and I am in search for a job. So, there is no chance for this question for somebody to ask me for a short time.

I would answer that question only if they work for the government tax department. That is the business of no one else. The nerve of some people asking that question. And no, I would not answer that question.
