Synopsis
For years, a moldy slice of the upper crust has been slumming it in disguise. Sitting on stoops, smoking up, and trying to blend in with the common broke folk by wearing worn-out jeans (though really stylishly distressed), drinking PBR (even though the family owns a vineyard), and not paying rent (that's what parents are for). Meet the Trustafarian counter-counter-culture. These young men and women have gone from the country club to the community pool--by choice, to look cool. They've adopted the free-spiritedness and outward appearance of the hippie, Rasta, and Bohemian sets . . . while retaining a few minor perks from their privileged upbringing, the 7-series, the summer home, and the money to burn. Inside, you will learn everything you ever wanted to know about the Trustafarian culture--from information on their formative years to their fashion choices to their fornication rituals. Get the scoop on Impostafarians, Brohemians, Fauxlanthropists, and their kept, but unkempt brethren. And next time, you'll be in the know rather than scratching your head when you see that homeless-looking guy hop into his brand-new Audi., On the surface the typical campus hippie and the textbook trustafarian seem similar. Dreaded, sporting a weaved baja, and smelling of patchouli, the trustafarian is able to blend in inconspicuously with his haystacking buds. However, upon closer inspection there are some noticeable differences: His backpack's an Ospray not from high school That baja's actually from the Hempest - and worth more than your watch The "vintage" Jamaica tee's from his family vacation to Royal Plantation There's more green in his wallet than his pipe The Trustafarian Handbook is here to help readers spot these differences and gain insight to the lifestyles of brohemians, fauxlanthropists, and their filthy - comma - rich brethren. There's plenty to learn from this guide to the counter-counter-culture. AUTHOR: Brian Griffin is a freelance writer who graduated from NYU, worked in SoHo, hung out in the Village, and lived in Brooklyn - giving him plenty of access to assess the counter-counter-culture's inner workings. Now, Griffin is back at home in the college-mottled heart of western Massachusetts, where trustafarians roam freely.
