    Who is the economy hurting the most?
    « on: May 05, 2009, 02:29:45 PM »
    Whop is the economy hurting the most?  For me, I turn my computer off every time I don't use it, and I have to shut down my website because it just costs too much.  For anyone interested, it is www.computersaver.webs.com 

    I think things are at their worst now.  Lets hope they get better soon!


    How is this terrible economy hurting you?

        No.  I had the paid account, stopped paying, and it bumped it back to free.  I don't have the money to waste to bring it back up, so I'm shutting it down. :'(

          NO, no.  I had a real domain, but as I said, because I stopped paying, it took everything back down to what the free version provides.

            Sometimes, though, the participation is mandatory.

            Yeah, I wish I could just choose not to pay my bills or buy food.

            I'm trying to get a computer repair business started, and I can definitely tell a big difference in business in the past few months. Nobody wants to spend any money on their computers anymore. People are broke nowadays.

            What are you saying Patio? Should I just try to live off of the land? I have a few acres of land for farming, but I have no livestock. I like to eat meat. I like to wear store bought clothes. I like to drive my car. I like electricity. That stuff requires that I participate in the economy.

            Unfortunately not even free support is immune I'm afraid. I've been continuing to get hit more and more each month this year, probably because many of the advertisers don't have the money any more.  ::) I'm with you on hoping the economy turns around, unfortunately though I can't imagine it recovering until at the very earliest mid 2010.  :-\
