What is Jamby?
1.
A "jamby" is a character of unquestionable success; good looking, quick-witted, business savy and quite often rolling in monies. A jamby's natural habitat is either the sports field surrounded by adoring fans or behing a mahogany desk signing a multi-million dollar contract. A jamby can be seen as the opposite of a bugaloo/buga who has no basis for their inflated sense of self-importance. Jambys don't live in a fantasy world their success exudes in everything they do.
However, the jamby's passion which guides his/her success can also make him/her susceptible to spectacular falls from grace or acts of unbridled ruthlessness. You never can be sure what a jamby is thinking and this makes them dangerous.
