Baller
意味: Someone who is impressive, successful, or living a lavish lifestyle.
Originally a basketball player, 'baller' evolved to mean anyone who lives large or excels at what they do. It can describe wealth ('baller lifestyle'), skill ('baller move'), or just general impressiveness. 'Baller on a budget' humorously describes living well without spending much.
