Recession Lexicon: Propportunity

By Sara Clemence ⋅ 12:00 pm February 4, 2009 ⋅ One comment

dictionary1 150x140What you get when you look at a problem as a potential opportunity. Examples of propportunities abound these days: A real estate crash is a problem unless you have cash and a hankering for property. The decline in shopping is a problem, unless you’re a shoe repair expert. Everyone in our Lemonade Makers series, which will unfold over the coming weeks, could be considered a propportunist.

Thanks to Marybeth Bentwood for the tip.
