It's not necessarily that income is a personal topic, but perhaps its more on the tacky side to ask, that's all. That's more of an American perspective, and maybe you don't abide by it, which is fine; but I think that asking specific people to disclose of their finances is basically inviting a downward spiral of discourse. It would be different if you had a poll or something, but this is basically people responding with their individual info (even if they're cool with it, it could make other people uncomfortable). And this isn't a totally anonymous forum - I think many people on the site know each other in person and whatnot. Besides, as kielbasa mentioned, everyone's situation differs...
