family support

A sweet/innocent-sounding term for frequent/ongoing financial handouts that one or more mooching relatives (such as adult-children or nephews/nieces) request/expect from one or more fiscally-solvent/responsible relatives (such as parents, grandparents, or aunts/uncles), step-relatives, or in-laws.

Disgusted step-father: Boy, when I agreed to a "family support" clause in the prenup, it never occurred to me that I'd be expected to actually FINANCIALLY SUPPORT my apathetic step-daughter and her lazy good-for-nothing live-in boyfriend! They act like they love and appreciate me, but I know they really only view me as a walking ATM!

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:

Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
