That's exactly why the rule is good, it allows you to pick out people like that. In other situations they will be the same (they can't help it) but it won't stand out so much.

Some people try to impress others by bossing people around or showing they can afford to be rude, for me that's a total turn-off.

The really interesting thing here is that the really wealthy are usually quite modest (at least, those that I've met, which is not a very large sample).
