Trustafarian is a young person from a wealthy background whose trust fund enables him or her to eschew1 conventional attitudes to work, dress,etc.

信托自由儿是那种来自富裕家庭的青年。他拥有些信托基金让他可以不需要遵循世俗的工作态度和衣着方法。

A trustafarian often wears his or her hair in natural styles. Although able to purchase fashionable designer clothing, a trustafarian prefers to wear thrift2 store clothes, inexpensive t-shirts, worn jeans and other hippie or bohemian accessories. Many trustafarians studiously avoid fashion trends or expensive jewelry3 in order to maintain their hippie or slacker image.

信托自由儿的发型一般都非常自然。虽然有能力购买一些流行的设计师服饰,信托自由儿却更想穿旧货店的衣服,实惠的T恤,破旧的牛仔裤,戴着嬉皮士或波西米亚风格的配饰。不少信托自由儿都刻意避开流行时尚或者昂贵珠宝,只为维持自己嬉皮或懒散的形象。

While many young people would envy a lifestyle without the pressures of work or financial support, a trustafarian may become bored with his or her role as the son or daughter of a wealthy industrialist4 or celebrity5. This is why a number of trust fund recipients6 decide to rebel against the trappings of materialism7 and become slackers or social dropouts instead. A trustafarian knows he or she will never actually run out of money, so adopting a more hedonistic or Bohemian lifestyle for a short period of time would be relatively8 risk-free.

虽然不少青年可能嫉妒他们的日常没工作重压,也无需爸爸妈妈的财政支援,但信托自由儿却可能厌倦自己作为一个富裕企业家或名人的儿子或女儿的身份。这也是为何不少信托基金宝贝决定和物质主义对着干,宁做逍遥散人。信托自由儿了解我们的钱是用之不竭的,所以过上一小段享乐主义或放浪不羁的生活也是没什么风险的。
