There’s like this weird culture around it where some may even consider it rude or too personal like it’s equivalent to asking someone their social security number or something
I’ve heard a rumor it’s because companies/bosses don’t want people to talk about their pay between employees because they may find discrepancies compared to their coworkers, but I’m not 100% sure that’s actually why since even their employees consider it taboo.

And on this note, is it taboo to ask people about their personal finance? Like how much they have saved, what is their monthly mortgage payment, how much do they spend on groceries, how much debt do you have. Where do you draw the line?
