The above reads, “Our Parents Killed Bad Ideas with Music, We Kill Bad Ideas with New Business Models.” After seeing this, we couldn’t help but chuckle. Part of a new online storyteller series from Penguin Books, Hard Times was created by Matt Mason (’The Pirate’s Dilemma’) and Nicholas Felton (’Felton Personal Annual Report’).
