The New Frugality

Vespa. The new S. Born to be square.

It’s the cover of the new issue of Business Week. Martin Kenney wrote about it here more than a month ago.

One Response to “The New Frugality”

  1. Elizabeth M Says:

    Frugality requires action and creativity – not laziness and complacency. But this economy is so beat up many folks want to sink into the “comfort foods” of what they already know and shy away from anything even slightly risky… even if it could turn out to benefit them in the end. Frugality, to me, is about weighing risk. People are in the balancing mode right now.
