diconomy

diconomy is the economic meeting of an uber wealthy person with a lower economically classed working person.

this most commonly occurs in service related environments such as Ubers, coffee shops, nail salons, restaurants etc. where wealthy people make split second decisions to reward working people via tip

the word itself represents the economic dichotomy between the wealthy and those struggling to meet ends, and how the wealthy make conscious decisions to tip at a level they feel comfortable with
The diconomy is so front and center whenever I am dressed in Gucci from head to toe and choosing how much to tip at Starbucks.

After the uber driver picked us up at the met and dropped us at the four seasons hotel at 2am, I felt diconomously compelled to tip the driver more than the fare itself

Joe: Hey, how's your job search going?
Schmo: Terrible. No one's hiring in this deconomy

Joe: So how are you holding up financially?
Schmo: We've had to deconomize. We quit eating out and now I put cheap gas in my car. Man, it's been tough ever since XYZ deconomized its entire manufacturing division. Guess they wouldn't have been able to pay the huge CEO bonuses otherwise.
