notcancer··on Fabric and craft retailer Joann to go out of business, close all of its stores
Is the purpose of a store to sell goods to people or to make it so you can retire after sucking it dry?

For what it's worth, I do have a 401(k), I AM holier than thee, and I don't think we should cannibalize every last business on earth and sell its organs in an alley in the name of economic growth. But those decisions are above my pay grade.

Yeah, selling goods at a store is so 2006. Everyone knows the only real businesses left are memecoins, SaaS, and consulting. Everyone else should get a real job.

Call me old-fashioned, but maybe craft stores don't need infinite double-digit growth.
