Is it necessary to tell people what I make $$?

[Anonymous]

In laws asking me how much I’m making. I don’t think I want them to know

[DubiousIntentions]

Tell them if they show you theirs, then you will show them yours, salary that is. They are probably wondering if you are self-sufficient, and not some gold digger.

[Asker]

Right and I’m saying who are they to think that they’re important in that way to determine that or to even care. ( these are in laws)

You need to read this: Here are the signs that people don't respect you. - GirlsAskGuys

And this: Are you people always inquiring about your life to you or to others? It means you have drama. - GirlsAskGuys

Those 2 posts will give you all of the insight you need to know.

Tell your partner that you don't want to tell them and he needs to make them not ask again.
If they ask again, tell them bluntly it's none of their business

[BarryLiverstone]

Nope, it’s a private matter. If they are asking out of curiosity then ask then why they would like to know

[Asker]

But what would be your response?

[BarryLiverstone]

I’d let them know I make enough to pay the bills

[BarryLiverstone]

How close are you to your in laws? Like did you just get married or have you been hanging out for years

[Asker]

Not too close about 3 months. It’s a weird situation they’re foreigners and I’m American, so it’s like this expectation there. But I’m not gonna conform to their expectations because the marriage is between my husband and I and not them. I want them to understand that and understand it good. I’m afraid that they may be calculating my income to ask for money or something.

[Roxxy99]

I usually tell them. I’m a public employee and my salary is publicly available online to anyone who is curious anyway.

[ProbablyClueless]

I keep numbered to myself, but I tell them that I make ends meet

[Reichmann75]

How much money a woman make is irrelevant. We usually don't care because her value doesn't reside in the cash she makes, unlike men.

[BarryLiverstone]

Huh? The asker didn’t ask about men vs women. And a persons value isn’t tied to their salary

[Reichmann75]

@BarryLiverstone Sure thing beta. Men living on welfares are high value 🤙

[catarecute]

i just tell them to go and ask their mum to teach them etiquette and come back later.

[BoopBoopBeep]

My partner of 8 years didn't know what I make precisely. No cause for that.

[CindyRuns]

At lot more than you'd imagine !!!

[Anonymous]

I tell them, its good for business

[Asker]

What?

[Asker]

Never mind this a nice one

[Opinion Owner]

I make £6,000 a year so they know I'm paying the best price going

[Anonymous]

Just say I don't talk about that.

[In_Trance]

never enough

[Asker]

Lol cool

[BLP11520]

Keep it to yourself

[Asker]

What would be your response?

[BLP11520]

Politely say I am sorry but I don’t want to share that

[Asker]

Maybe take the sorry because I’m not sorry just don’t want to share PERFECT!

[Asker]
