www.wordspy.com/words/schmooseoisie.asp
"
schmooseoisie
n. The class of people who make their living by talking.
...
Notes:
This word is a not-quite-euphonious blend of schmooze, "to talk persuasively to someone, especially for personal gain," and bourgeoisie, "the affluent middle class." The earliest citation shows not only a variant (yet more sensible) spelling ("schmoozeoise"), but also includes a description by Paul Lewis, who coined the term (and who also coined the famous Frankenfood)"
