bingo. rude to ask and rude to divulge because you're generally trying to point out how much better off you are /or how much worse off you are (and it's not your fault) and they should feel sorry for you. You would never start a discussion about it if you expected people to be pretty much the same as yourself.

see the view here is that its information. ofcourse its ego related, but what you are showing off is the same thing you are showing off by sharing maintanance techniques and recipies.
