My T knows my finances in detail because he helped me in some legal matters. I wish he didn't know because I'm very protective of that information. I grew up in a family where we didn't talk about money--it was considered very private, like the details of one's sex life--so I feel somewhat mortified he got to know about my finances. I just feel my T doesn't need to know how much was in my bank account, my salary, the value of my house, car, and retirement fund, my debts, etc. I didn't really have a choice in his knowing this stuff, but if I did, I wouldn't have told him! Another thing I was very embarrassed about was that he got to look at the appraisal document for my home, and they took pictures of the house, including one end of my bedroom, which was a total mess, a room in the basement (the "junk room"), the fence that was down in the back yard, etc. I'm embarrassed he saw that stuff.
