$30,000 Millionaire




The $30,000 millionaire. The name derives from their distinctive behavioral pattern of spending more money than they make in an attempt to appear wealthy and desirable. Dallas is full of them. As I venture out to Greenville Ave I am swarmed with douchebaggery. The Dallas Observer warns of them: The creature is predominantly nocturnal. He is occasionally spotted during daylight hours in close proximity to brunch buffets and build-your-own-Bloody-Mary bars. More intelligent than many experts give him credit for, the $30,000 millionaire is highly social and characterized by easily identifiable plumage: wildly spiked, occasionally faux-hawked and usually frosted hair atop the head. About the torso, look for brand-name adornment in the form of shirts stamped with cheeky slogans or printed with a great deal of over-designed crap. There will be man-jewelry. The Dallas Observer ran a story on the background of the 30k millionaire. It is hysterical and I highly encourage anyone who is not familiar with this species to read it.
