Get the island paradigm mug.A specific type of golden parachute which refers to executives who receive a disproportionately large reward, bonus or bailout despite being painfully incompetent at their job to tragic ends and use said reward in irresponsible ways.
This is most accurately directed at executives in the finance industry who received money from the TARP act intended to save the economy and, instead, used it irresponsibly.
In parts of the US, pronounced "tar-POLE-ee-in bailout."

In layman's terms it becomes cool to have a vast pool of contacts requiring too much time and effort to properly maintain. As such the people worthy of an individual's time and effort are determined by the rewards that come with associating with that individual.
