Maybe he just thinks it is none of your business (he probably doesn't tell you about his sex life, either).  Or maybe he is afraid you want to ask him for a loan or get him to invest in some scheme.  Or that you are sounding him out so you can [kidnap him and hold him for ransom] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Lampert#Kidnapping), or even worse, try to sell him variable universal life insurance.

It is not done because it is not done.  Which means when you try to do it, people think you are up to something.  Which then re-enforces the circular argument.
