I have mild Asperger’s, and it allows me to hyper-focus, and do deep research. Socially, it's different, I'm not a social person, but read people pretty well. I tend toward introversion.

Apparently Asperger’s crops up in financial fields for those reasons.

If you put that as a definition with a picture of a person, you’d see my beloved husband’s face.

LOL

He’s also EXCELLENT with numbers.

Downside: He can be focused to a fault, excluding anything and everything not related to the thought process at the moment. Also, he cannot refrain from his face showing what he’s thinking. LOL That last tidbit has caused me to actually tell waitstaff and strangers to please disregard the look currently on his face as his ‘New Yorker’ gene has kicked in.....

‘Cause he is from New York..... Married 33 years, living in Texas for 32 and 1/2 years and that New York gene will still kick into gear. He will never go back to New York, though. Whew.

LOL
