Earning and Discussing

I haven't earned a dime yet, but I've seen an increase in traffic along with 3 referrals for Jaaxy! Hopefully, they'll upgrade soon!

I have no problem answering someone's question of how much money I've earned with internet marketing. Whether it's $0 or $5000, I don't mind telling someone if they ask. My question to the community is, why is it so taboo to ask someone how much money they've made? I know everyone will make different amounts depending on their site, niche, content, etc.... But why not tell someone if they are curious? I like to find out all details before diving into something, so what's the big deal?

I know it's not all about money initially, but in the long run it is. Afterall, that's ultimately why we are all here, to make money online and to learn how to do it correctly. So, I would like to here people's thoughts on sharing earnings. I know I would like to ask some people what they've made with their site and maybe learn a little extra on how to increase earnings.
