Get the contrapreneur mug.A person who claims to be self-employed, a small business owner, or an entrepreneur, but really just sits around all day thinking about those things.

Successful person: "Hi, I'm Jim. I am a journalist. What do you do for a living?"
Nontrepreneur: "Hi, Jim. I'm sorry to hear that. While you were at the office today, I was on the beach taking a break from work. I am able to do that because I run my own company, and don't have to be a part of the ratrace like everyone else. My earnings potential is unlimited. If you have a few minutes, I'd like to discuss an opportunity for you to change your life forever - but you have to act now, or you might miss out."
