Dubai Default
Global markets have plummetted since Wednesday’s announcement by the Dubai government that it would delay the maturity date of $59 billion in bonds issued to its largest state owned company Dubai World.

Once upon a time, we used to buy what we needed.

Now that we have all we need, we buy for other reasons: to impress each other, to fill a void, to kill time. Buy Nothing Day is a simple idea: try not to shop for a day, and see how your view of our world changes.
