Honestly, do you tell the exact amount of your incomes to your family?

Whatever is it, I always try to be honest to my only Mom. I always tell her the amount of my monthly salary, how much I got from my side jobs, and even my privacy. ...Lol. We are very close, indeed. What about you? Do you tell the exact amount of your salary or earnings to your family honestly?

That's sometime irritating. I also don't like to be compared with my relatives..

@XinfulThotz Don't take it seriously. Keep silent. Silence is gold.

Well, I am most of the time honest when I answer sensitive questions since in turn they also kind of tell theirs as well. But i do keep how I spend my money a secret although I write them on my finance journal. For my family, I tell them my income, and I give some to them as well. There are definitely advantages and disadvantages for each but at least they don't take advantage of me. That is endearing to me.

@Ayuriny They won't so long as you have genuine love with each other, and I am most certainly sure you have.

Hahah. Yes, it's only my mom too. May be because children are more attached to their moms than to the others.
