would u want people to know ur income?

how many threads have you read where people are wondering what other people in the industry make? and it's always the same thing happening... most people either lying about what they make or reluctant to give out that info (aside from the occasional jaw dropping stats posted by some guys)

what about people in the public eye, such as professional athletes? namely the nba, nfl & mlb where it's common to see yearly contracts to go into the 15+ million/year range. i notice that when players are getting talked about by commentators & analysts, that it's a lot more frequent nowadays to include their salary as some kind of filler. would you want everyone to know how much bacon you brought home? i mean, having coworkers knowing that is one thing, but neighbours, drive-thru clowns and the assholes pumping your gas... i dunno. and then theres the criticism if these people happen to be carrying (first one that comes to mind is iverson)
