Nah. I don't avoid people for financial reasons. But if a guy is looking for a woman to keep up with him or go dutch on expensive outings or trips, I make it clear he'll need to look elsewhere. That's not my lifestyle and not in my budget. Even my SO knows that if he wants to do something pricey, I can only afford so much so he's paying for most or all of it.

Yep, that's a biggie. I can't just jet off at a moment's notice or eat out all the time. I've never dated a guy with a huge income disparity, and I don't expect to be treated like a princess, but certain things are not in the cards on my budget.
I don't think that I could ever, ever tell someone how much money I make, how much money I have, or all the assets I have or their total value. Even in a LTR or marriage. I wouldn't expect anyone to show all their cards to me either. I'm speaking as an early to mid 20s professional with no serious relationships to speak of so maybe I don't know of what I speak.
How do you go about obtaining the information of how much money the other person has? It seems tasteless to straight up ask during a date.
I drive a lower end car and live in a small apartment, hardly arousing suspicion of having any sort of wealth. A date wouldn't suspect that I am an investor in the global supply chains of energy and heavy metals.

That is very strange and speaks to some trust issues.
Finances are extremely important to be frank about.

Actually, in a marriage, you would probably have to, to a certain extent. How would you expect to buy a home together unless you know what you could afford as a team? That's all stuff you'll figure out as you go along, depending on how serious a relationship is and whether you intend to marry or come to own joint assets.
However I do think it's smart that you play your cards close to your vest. You'll avoid having to worry about whether someone just wants you for your money. Plus, not for nothing, in my opinion, a woman of substance would appreciate discretion and be turned off by ostentation. But I'm snooty that way.

I never ask, but sometimes things show -- and if the difference is too much I feel uncomfortable.
Sure, there are stealth rich people. I know several IRL . But usually people mention things. I mean, if it's not a secret, how long would you be dating someone without ever mentioning something that is important to you, like your investing stuff? I have an ex who was really into investing, spent a lot of time at it, went to conferences and stuff, and he talked about it! I learned a lot from him .
No because I don't care how much a woman makes. That doesn't matter to me
