i am working on a mba and I am married with a wife in accounting. I was very upset with the question as employer can't be nosy into your financial worth and background. they are just supposed just see if you are an appropriate candidate for the job.
Sounds like employer is really asking about YOUR past employment history. In any case I see nothing in your comments that can be responded to more directly.
First, it is not a good idea, and a violation of the terms of use of this site, to post the name of the employer.
Second, nothing in your post suggests a question. What are you seeking from us?
Finally, if your question is whether what this person said in an interview was legally appropriate, the answer is probably yes. There is nothing wrong with an employer asking you about this kind of thing. It does not suggest selection criteria that are unlawful, and what is being asked is not inherently private.
Good luck to you.
