Digital Nomad

1. A trust fund kid who has a job that is not really rooted in reality. They travel and spend beyond their own means for long periods of time. Perpetually pretending to have a perfect social media life and considers themselves intellectually superior to most conventional earners. They almost exclusively use white and or passport privilege to their direct economic advantage whether or not they acknowledge the abuse of said privilege.
2. Most people named Greg.
3. Someone you only swipe right on tinder if you are really poor and are desperate for a meal in a foreign country.
4. One of hundreds of thousands of bloggers who's primary audience is their immediate family members who live vicariously through their travels and likely finance them.

5. Code work for drug smuggler. Like usually they smuggle drugs. Or they could be a camboy/camgirl.
Person 1: "I heard from Greg the other day! He said he was getting Shanghai'd to China to start his life as a Digital Nomad in China!"
Person 2: "Greg?!? That dude can't swim, I bet you $500 he's dead in a month."

Person 1: "I don't think he understands the definition of Shanghai'd i.e. the practice of kidnapping people to serve as sailors by coercive techniques such as trickery, intimidation, or violence."
Person 2: "So he's just spending more of his dad's money isn't he?"
Person 1: "Yeah, unless he's smuggling drugs or being a camboy..."
Person 2: "I'd pay money to see him stick opium in his ass."
Person 1: "I always said he had potential!"

Gypsy-Nomad

I remember a lot of so-called POOR-THIEVING-SCUM-BASTARDS were transported (from England) to Australia 222 years ago. Were they 'GYPSY-NOMADIC-TRAVELLERS' as well ? The above title can be connected to nearly every nation's 'desperately poor' (especially irresponsibly over-populated nations) while the Romantic use of words like Gypsy is used when such people are not being 'Thieving bastard scum' and are putting forth something 'culturally enriching' for some coin. I come from Australia (in the Region known as Sahul) where Aboriginal Peoples were proud and amazing examples of NOMADS, until 'restrictions' and other 'civilised' inflictions were placed upon them and they became POOR-THIEVING-BASTARD-SCUM like everyone else. Now we see SURVIVOR programs where Civilised (City) people stumble around in an effort to live as Nomadic & Gypsy as possible ...with little success.
Aboriginals were originally Gypsy-Nomad - where they walked 'free' in a country that they had turned into the world's biggest Estate of Natural Parkland.
