My point is, I feel it's personal, so I politely decline to tell people, but you may tell them.

Of course you can politely decline to answer, just as they can politely ask. Most of what you listed isn't exactly a big secret anyway.
Now be honest, are you more comfortable talking about the price of things you own with people you consider peers? My point being your reaction is probably more protective than personal.
I mean, I don't really know you, but if we were to meet at a gathering we couldn't discuss what we spent on our cars? (especially after 20yrs when we'll be bragging about how we only spent about $100k "back in the day")
I'm not trying to pick on you bud, none of us would have much to talk about if we all thought the same.
