>Earn 135k salary
>Tell my family that I earn 45k a year so they don't ask me for stuff

This is absolutely a smart move, I tell everyone, friends and girlfriends as well, that my pay is 50% of what it actually is, only good things have come of this.

No. If it was me I’d say I made a bit more than 45k though. At least don’t make yourself look pathetic.

Well, it's not wrong because you are making 45k a year. You are also making 35k a year. You are not making 136k a year. If you have $100 dollars and someone asks if you have $10, then that person is right

i tell my family because they're rich. everyone else I don't discuss my income. they can guess based on my job and where I live, but I don't even tell my gf how much I make. none of her goddamn business.

If you are from a white trash family, yeah lie.

Everyone in my family knows how much each other makes. We are clannish though and support each other because none of us are retarded vidya playing neets.

Can't they tell you make more based on your lifestyle? I downplay too, but that's a pretty big gap

kek If they're the needy types, this is the right thing to do and if not then you're just being modest. Either way good job and only tell them if they discover without a doubt about it.
