Creditz<\/strong>: \/KREH dits<\/em>\/ Merry Spinder loves to buy everything on credit and has developed an elaborate system of rationalization for this habit. She is such a creditz that she reasons that she is actually making money doing this, because while the credit card company charges 8% interest on what she owes, the money that’s sitting in her mutual fund earning interest is supposedly making more than that. Except she forgot that the stock market hasn’t been doing too well lately, and, oh yeah, paying $39 late fees isn’t helping her “make money” either. This is the same woman who in college thought that if she still had checks in her checkbook, that meant there was still money in the account! Etymology:<\/em> credit + ditz Created by:<\/em> karenanne.<\/p>\n

Masterhard<\/strong>: \/mast\u00c9\u2122rh\u00c3\u00a4rd<\/em>\/ Willie hates cash. He makes a point of never touching the dirty stuff. He had a masterhard time when he was told that tickets were on a cash-only basis for the upcoming Johnny Cashless and Plastico Domingo Concert. Etymology:<\/em> MasterCard (a credit card) + hard (difficult) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n

Robberdinero<\/strong>: \/rob ber dee ner o<\/em>\/ Robbie’s Dad, Robert, hated touching cash. He thought the bills and coins were full of germs. Robbie and his friends nicknamed him robberdinero, because, to be franc, he had no yen to handle the filthy lucre. “Although you are a sterling character,You know euro-verdrawn at the bank?”, his son reminded him. His father replied, “If yuan your allowance, you will have to get a debit card and make your mark on the world of finance.” Robbie had a ruble-ation and went to pound on doors to get a job. His father is headed for the Loonie bin. Etymology:<\/em> Robber (a thief who steals from someone) & Dinero (informal terms for money) and a play on Robert DeNiro (actor…famous for the line, “Are you talking to me”???)<\/p>\n

Dollarepsy<\/strong>: \/daw-ler-epp-see<\/em>\/ Jim’s dollarepsy was so severe that he ignored the $20 bill that he spotted on his neighbour’s front lawn. Etymology:<\/em> dollar + epsy (as in affected by) Created by:<\/em> remistram.<\/p>\n
