I wouldn't describe people as envious, toxic, etc... but even well meaning people who know how much you make can create issues that you simply would prefer not to have. For example, if you make a lot people may expect you to pay for dinner more, or worry less about inconveniencing you financially. Not in a mean malicious way, but in a "Tommy's not gonna sweat this $20". Or the opposite, they may question why you have that new car, when your finances don't really justify it. They may be looking out for you, but really that decision should be yours and your spouse. I'm not sure what upside there is to letting anyone know.
