萬人羨慕的“信托自由兒”

含著金鑰匙出生的富二代不用像平民家的孩子一樣操心升學就業，為房租和房價發愁，被現實束縛得縮手縮腳，他們可以自由地過著隨心所欲的生活，因為父母留給他們的信托基金讓他們有花不完的錢，這些人就是trustafarian（信托自由兒）。

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

信托自由兒是那種來自富裕家庭的年輕人。他擁有的信托基金讓他可以不用遵循世俗的工作態度和衣著方式。

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

信托自由兒的發型通常都很自然。雖然有能力購買一些時尚的設計師服裝，信托自由兒卻更愿意穿舊貨店的衣服，便宜的T恤，破舊的牛仔褲，戴著嬉皮士或波西米亞風格的配飾。很多信托自由兒都刻意避開時尚潮流或者昂貴珠寶，只為保持自己嬉皮或懶散的形象。

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 industrialist or celebrity. This is why a number of trust fund recipients decide to rebel against the trappings of materialism 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 relatively risk-free.

雖然很多年輕人可能嫉妒他們的生活中沒有工作壓力，也不需要父母的財政支援，但信托自由兒卻可能厭倦自己作為一個富裕企業家或名人的兒子或女兒的身份。這也是為什么很多信托基金寶貝決定和物質主義對著干，寧做逍遙散人。信托自由兒知道自己的錢是用之不竭的，所以過上一小段享樂主義或放蕩不羈的生活也是沒什么風險的。
