I haven't put that much thought into people knowing my salary, since it's private. I went to great lengths to hide the value of the transaction of my home though. At the time, I was a bit embarrassed about how much I spent and I didn't want it being public.

I didn't know this was possible. Doesn't Zillow still have your number? (or, at the least, the numbers on your comps)

How did you do that? I though it was (more or less) public information.

In most of USA, you can't hide the sale, but you can attach a fictitious name to it, so people who don't know your address can't just Google your house by name.
