I don’t tell everyone but I still ask the question. Often, it’s a good signal if we’re going to get along. Also, as someone who is in the dating market - it’s one of the first questions I ask because outside of physical attraction, how much money they make is the easiest dealbreaker to filter on.

I’m a man btw. Money matters when you’re buying $3m homes.
