probletunity 

An opportunity that arises when a problem has to be solved. The opportunity may give rise to benefits that are unrelated to the problem being solved.
The rising cost of gasoline creates a market for alternative energy sources. This creates an probletunity for developing and marketing electrically powered hybrid vehicles to replace cars totally reliant on petrol and diesel. This will save on co2 emissions, which contribute to the greenhouse effect, and thus may reduce global warming.

problemtunity 

An offer presented to an employee, usually by a manager, which is an unwanted task outside the scope of the employee's normal job function that will cause much confusion and anxiety and never reward him the recognition he deserves anyway.
"Ron, are you busy? I need your help with something...I have a problemtunity, if you will..."

problemtunity 

The combination of the words "problem" and "opportunity", and a reminder that problems are opportunities.
Intuitively , the graduate student sensed that getting a new next door neighbor who smokes was a PROBLEMTUNITY, but wasn't sure why. In the next few days and weeks he realized that seeing how fucked-up his neighbor was, addicted to nicotine and unable to quit smoking, and that man's other problemtunities, let the graduate student see how blessed he was to be healthy and living correctly. The opportunity the problemtunity presented him with is a chance to spend more time studying, because to prevent his new neighbor's cigarette smoke from entering his apartment through its main door he puts a blanket at the base of the door, and to not need to stick parts of the blanket in the cracks on the side of the door more than once-a-day, he stays at home more, dedicates more time to study, and is getting better grades.

PROFITUNITY

A volatile market, offering a chance to make millions if you guess right. This word is usually used only by people trying to sell some sort of a seminar.
As the markets go up and down we see a profitunity, if you are positioned to take advantage of it.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
