Functional Poor

This word defines a certain catergory of people*, who can afford to go to school abroad and go on vacation every year, but are poor.

*Not to be mistaken for rich or working-class.

Poor Mouth

Poor Mouth is the movement of rich people pretending to be poor for fun. This includes buying from thrift shops, buying clothes made to look dirty and ripped, or making "homeless inspired" accessories. The only issue is, once they're bored they can simply go back to being rich.

The punk version of Poor Mouth is known as Corporate Punk.

Mary: I saw the CEO of our company wearing a cardboard sign around his neck? Why is he pretending to be poor?

Jack: Oh he's just doing Poor Mouth now, he thinks his cardboard sign necklace is trendy

Mary: Did he really have to stop bathing?
