trust funder

Beneficiary of wealth

A trust funder is someone who lives off money from a family trust fund rather than earned income.

The term often carries connotations of privilege, entitlement, or not having to work: He's just a trust funder playing at being an artist.

Sometimes shortened to trustafarian when combined with bohemian or counterculture affectations.
