Naturally, Walter White didn't want his family to find out about his new, incredibly immoral and illegal get rich quick scheme. But with a hell of a lot more money to his name, and extended periods of time away from his family raised questions about what he was actually getting up to. Questions to which Walt lied about, and as the saga went on, the lies just grew and grew.

Not only did he lie about where the money was coming from for his chemotherapy, after being held for a few days out in the desert with Tuco, there was one hell of an explanation needed.
