Do you talk about money with your friends?

Sure - we all want to retire. So investing and money saving ideas are fun to talk about, at least for me.

Yes. In general, even if it might be an uncomfortable topic, money talk/salaries should be discussed. Not to make someone else feel bad, but to show people that they potentially earn less than they deserve.

Not much. Sometimes I mention to friends that I have more money than I have anything I want to do with it just so they feel okay with me offering money or gifts if they're broke. And my best friend is pretty poor and always talks about how he has no money, can't afford food, gets handouts from his mom and sister, etc., and also about how he doesn't even want a lot of money and hopes he never has it because he's not competent enough to manage it, even though he regularly plays the lottery because he says it gives him hope. But that's not really me talking about money..
