moneybags

Slang for millionaire

Moneybags is an informal, slightly mocking term for a wealthy person, emphasizing their abundance of cash.

It often carries a tone of envy or mild resentment: Hey moneybags, you're buying lunch today.

The word can be used as a noun or as a joking form of address.

Though sometimes affectionate among friends, it typically implies the person flaunts or is defined by their wealth rather than other qualities.
