A term which might have a lot of negative connotations attached to it, but really only means what it stands for - Young Urban Professional. In other words, it's anyone who is over twenty and under forty, lives in an urban environment and has a good career. This does most likely mean that they are fairly affluent, but it doesn't necessarily mean that they're self-centered, obsessed with showing off, pissy if they don't start off every single day of their lives with a latte from Starbucks, or anything else like that.
I plan to become a yuppie once I'm out of grad school, but that one little label doesn't make me a bad person.

Get the yuppiemug. A derogatory term used to describe young, rich, and normally stuck-up people.
Yuppies (or: YUPS) are in the age group of 22-32, live in large, expensive subdivisions, and live with general technology and wealth. Yuppies commonly drive foreign luxury cars as well as small SUVs, such as a Honda CR-V, Toyota Rav-4, or Jeep Liberty. Yuppies are often seen at nature centers, walking trails, or beach-side campgrounds. Yuppies often pay $300,000 for houses with an extremely small yard and no foliage.
Yuppies get along easily with other yuppies. However, anyone "below" them on the social chain they will not talk to.
Yuppies may be male or female, however, when a female yuppie becomes pregnant and has a child, she then becomes a soccer mom.
