Poverty Jet Set

"A group of people given to chronic traveling at the expense of long-term job stability or a permanent residence. Tend to have doomed and extremely expensive phone-call relationships with people named Serge or Ilyana. Tend to discuss frequent-flyer programs at parties."
--Douglas Coupland, novel Generation X, 1991

"Alex's boss, unversed in the ways of the Poverty Jet Set, failed to understand why trudging into the office at noon with luggage and a shrug of, 'There was a web special to Tokyo,' was a good excuse for missing the eng all-hands meeting."

Poverty Spec

Poverty Spec is a term used when someone orders or purchases a car from a brand typically known for their higher end clientele (Mercedes, BMW, Range Rover, etc..) with very few options. This is done so the purchaser will seem more wealthy than they actually are.

An example of a "poverty spec" car is a Mercedes C class with just the lighting options to make the badge glow and project the emblem onto the ground under the doors. These cars typically have little to no options other than those that show off the brand.

Please note that this usually can't really apply to super high end cars like Mclarens, Lamborghinis, and Ferraris just to name a few, but it is still possible.

"Dude did you see that fancy Benz drive by?"

"Yeah, but it's a poverty spec C class, it only had the base 4 cylinder and illuminated badging."
