oh, yeah, let's toss one in for for the 'proto-elitist'... the 'ordinary guy' who'd just like to start stepping-up to the Elitist Ranks

If he gets rich enough to afford Napoleon Brandy, and multi-thousand dollar bottles of French Bordeaux, that wouldn't automatically make him an elitist.

A proto-elitist would be someone who's starting to develop an attitude that he is superior, not someone who's starting to get rich.
