yuppy
1. an ambitious young adult, usually college-educated, living in or near a large city, with a professional career and an affluent lifestyle. the "u" in the word is sometimes interpreted as meaning ââ¬Åupwardly mobileââ¬Â.
Don't understand the two previous assessments - "yuppy" a well-known term in the 80's and beyond for young upwardly mobile in the City.
The term certainly has its place in history and is frequently still used today, particularly in the UK.
