nouveau riche ou parvenu? c'est le meme chose..


Nouveau riche (French for "new rich"), or new money, refers to a person who has acquired considerable wealth within his or her generation.This term is generally to emphasize that the individual was previously part of a lower socioeconomic rank, and that such wealth has provided the means for the acquisition of goods or luxuries that were previously unobtainable. Often referred to as parvenu, members of the nouveau riche, are often discriminated against by the “Old Money” sects of society since they “lack the proper pedigree.” These newcomers to economic freedom are subject to even greater scrutiny from their lack of historical prestige as seen through Old Money's comments which reference new rich as “uncouth” and “uncultured.”
