I only discuss personal finance with my immediate family. Rarely do my friends or acquaintances bring it up.

Here in Australia its definitlety a bit of a taboo topic – we definitely don’t talk about it enough!

It depends on whether we’re making money or losing it. I expect we are talking much less than we used to.

Those who don’t need to talk about it do so way too much, and those who do need to talk about it (and listen) do so way too little

We talk way too little, the more we talk the more we learn. Most People do not like to talk about money because they don’t know anything about it. They don’t know how to make it, save it or invest it.
