Pronunciation: sak rif is kal lam

Sentence: Like a born again zealot, she had pursued her selling pyramid like a religion and forsook her friends, her family and her health to acquire the top-rated status and finer things of life...her mansion, expensive cars, exotic trips and designer attire. But it was lonely counting all that money on your own. Her profit had become her prophet. On the altar of high consumerism, she had become a sacrifiscalamb.

Etymology: Sacrificial Lamb (someone or something which is given to people in authority and which is expected to be harmed or destroyed, especially in order to prevent other people or things from being harmed or destroyed) & Fiscal (involving financial matters)
