What's a more modern term for "yuppie"?
Solution 1:
The other day I heard the term "YoPro" used (young professional).
The term refers to people in their 20s and 30s who are employed in a profession or white-collar occupation.
This means they are recent graduates of universities serving in professional careers.
It has developed off the term ‘yuppie’ that was used in the early 1980s to describe a young professional working in the city.

However, I think that yuppie has the staying power to outlast YoPro... it just has a better ring to it.
YoPro sounds too much like a combination of GoPro and Yoplait for my taste.
