Get the eien's careermug. The socially respectable and seemingly profitable job or career that a wealthy person claims to have to hide the fact that they don't really work or make money and instead coast off their savings, inheritance, or other handouts.
For example someone might claim to be a 'designer' though no one buys anything they make and they live off their parents, or someone might say they're an 'investor' but they don't invest any money or do anything to make profit.
Such claimed careers and jobs give status and recognition to someone who would otherwise be classified as unemployed or idle.

A CAM (Career Advancing Move) is the way in which one persists with drinking with work colleagues - to the point of a CLM (career limiting move) and then from that point to not stop drinking once you get to that stage, but continue to the CAM stage. This is of course more effective if the people around you should also be boarder-line inebriated.
