> On the other hand, the example they provided with the software engineer might also be that the person is on the spectrum and doesn’t know better (not unique to having more money) or is just a hyper-logical engineer and wouldn’t think of doing it another way (maybe this is just a nice way to describe autism, but still…). Alternatively - different groups have different cultural norms around money and how to behave with it. I don't really think you have to bring autism into it. Fact is as a society we are not one homogeneous culture - there are tons of minor variations all with their own cultural norms. What's rude to one group is polite to another and vice versa.
