Yuppie 

A young Urban Proffessional, commonly thought of as a general menace, due to increasing the property values of the neighorhoods around them, however, they can be artistic, creative indivduals who gained through their own hard work and want to help the world.

In the song' We're All Yuppies Now', I give yuppies a good name.

To understand the word yuppie, I believe a mini-geneaology is helpful. Many yuppies, during the 60s were hippies who opposed the Vietnam War with their slogan of peace and love. At the beginning of the 70s, this movement died and most of the hippies sold out. The energy and momentum they had created, they poured into the capitalist market, and rather than make love they started to make money. That´s why I believe the term yuppie has connotations of inauthenticity because many yuppies once had a higher ideal; they were playing a bigger game and they traded it in for consumerism.

Boulder, Colorado was one of the epicenters of hippiedom back in the 60s and now it is super-yuppie. It's now called "the rich, white utopia".

Yuppie 

Privileged white person born into the rich-middle class. You can identify them by their apartments paid by their white parents and their over priced coffee. Not only they are entitled but they they also gentrified every poor income community. Ex: Hoboken, Brooklyn, and other areas near NYC.

Privileged white kids call themselves yuppies.
