Business cutbacks - Page 2

When they started raising interest rates I consolidated my debt to a fixed rate personal loan and am paying it off. I watch what I spend now and I guess others are doing the same and this is the result. My QVC easy pays are about to be paid up and my HSN ones have another month or two. I have not been tuning in so I don't get tempted. I had always planned to come back once finances were better, although I really do not want to accumulate debt. However, I am very disappointed by which hosts they kept and which they released, and that is all I will say. I will miss Dan, Carolyn, Shannon Smith&Fox, and I thought I read Leslie was released as well. The economy is in the toilet at the moment, so I get it...I just question how they chose to oust who they did. I don't see Gen Zers flocking to HSN/QVC even with their "young" hosts...it is like those of us who kept the lights on do no count.

I don't think it's about Gen Z so much as it's about Gen X. You boomers seem really out of touch.
