「傍大款」英文怎麼說

「大款」這個詞好像是改革開放後才出現的，指的就是那些有錢人。有錢人多了以後又滋生出了另一群人，他們嚮往物質享受，又不願意出力，所以，就有了「傍大款」。

Throughout much of our civilization's history and in various parts of the world, those with limited options (historically women) have been seeking wealthy partners who can provide for them, prioritizing financial security over other factors, like romance, love, looks, and/or compatibility. The term "gold digger" became popular during the American Gold Rush.

在我們人類文明發展的過程中，世界各地都會有這樣一些生活選擇很有限的人（從歷史上來看多數為女人），她們一直在尋求物質上富足的伴侶，希望他們能夠滿足一切物質所需了；對她們來說，經濟上的穩定比浪漫、愛情、長相或雙方的融洽度都要重要。在美國「淘金熱」時期，gold digger（「淘金者」，即以色相博取錢財的人，也就是我們俗稱的「傍大款」）這個說法開始流行。

Times have changed, but the concept remains the same. Whether we like it or not, many people still wish (sometimes subconsciously or quietly) to find someone who can be a "breadwinner" for various reasons - so they can stay home to raise children, focus on a dream career that has yet to produce reliable income, or simply for material comfort. As more women become financially successful, fewer of them are interested in "gold digging", but male "gold diggers" are becoming more common.

時代不同了，但「淘金」的觀念還是沒有變。不管我們是不是喜歡，出於很多原因，很多人還是希望（有時是潛意識地或者偷偷地希望）能夠找到一個「衣食靠山」，這樣她們就可以待在家裡看孩子，專注於一份還不能創造穩定收入的理想職業，或僅僅為了物質享受。隨著越來越多的女性在經濟上成功自立，有意於「傍大款」的女性就越來越少了，反而是男性當中「傍款」的人越發常見了。
