I've found that the more one makes the less inclined they are to disclose it.

You would think its the other way around.

Hey...........sometimes I make 3K (USD) a week. Other times I only make 1500 a week. Such is life.
We have to learn to do with what we have. It's not what you make. It's what you save.
You're gonna need every damn penny believe me. The difference in planning for retirement or not is the difference between eating tunafish or eating catfood. The sooner you start, the better off you'll (and your family) will be.  Learn the rule of 72. You'll thank Old Mr. Wilson in your later years long after I'm dead.

#9: I make around $5000  (a year... honest).

This post is a good thing. For over half my life, I lived in a tiny one-horse town and really did not know what other people made elsewhere. I did not know that if I moved 300 miles away, my household income would immediately almost quadruple and the cost of living would only be a fraction higher. The cost of living is an IMPORTANT feature to think about!!!!!! Perhaps THE ONE.
Employers want to Keep THAT information (wages) hidden from you. "They" will tell you the cost of living elsewhere is exponential! This is a great post.
People need to know. Especially young people. For me it's over. For you I wish you the world and all the best. Let's keep it in balance. This is one of the best posts that I've seen on this board or any board. Tell what you feel. Tell it all.

I just want to say that one thing I've learned so far about most people is that we never earn enough money. We will always jump to the opportunity of a better paid job, because what we earn is never enough.

The problem is, we are never satisfied with what we have and we have not learned to say "yeah, I have enough and im good".
Ask a friend who makes twice or 3 times more of what you make a year, and I bet he/she also don't make enough. Ask a millionare, and you'll get the same thing. Ask yourself when a few years ago you used to make half of what you make now... and used to think "if only I could make $(insert amount you make now), then everything would be fine..."

but to me is fun to watch this phenomena all over the place.
