Break it down this way. Its about the way people in different cultures reflexively parse incomplete information. The issue is that you have unspoken assumptions - Its just some guy giving you a buck, no other costs/strings or concerns to deal with. Take buck, move on. Now lets say you are in a gift giving culture, or even better, a "high-context culture". Whose giving you the money? A buck? From a millionaire? Are there strings attached? Nothing is free so whats going on? So on and so forth.
