An acronym meaning "We Are Almost Like You" used to described the creme de la creme of the boarding school educated. A true Waaler or Waaly is a Swiss boarding school educated heir to a financial dynasty older than most countries or the son of a morally dubious oligarch/magnate. While some only speak of going on holiday in the Swiss Alps, a WAALER lives and hops betwixt them more than a drunk social climber changes conversations at Billionaire in Porto Cervo. A WAALY Is 99.9% more likely to boast about the boarding school he went to than his Oxford/Wharton degree. Not to be confused with the lesser-species of middle class UK boarding school students, who will often try to associate with or emulate the WAALY elite.
