@denaliedgeconsulting: When did making money become something business owners have to apologize for? We expect them to create jobs, pay higher wages, offer benefits, keep prices low, and support their communities. But the moment they make a healthy profit, they’re greedy? You can’t demand everything from businesses and then shame them for making the money it takes to survive. It’s time to change that conversation. Agree or disagree? 👇 #BusinessOwner #SmallBusiness #ContractorLife #ProfitMatters #EntrepreneurMindset
Wrong businesses - people don’t know this, but the problem is the huge corporations with values of 30-200x earnings and driving up prices to fund their stock prices

I;d be happy to ‘share’ any profits assuming staff would ‘share’ any losses.

profit is only a dirty word to those that expect everyone else to take care of them.

I never owned a business. I worked for one. I chose to save/invest while living well below my means. Very early in my career, you’d call me frugal. While I was frugal, my friends were living large. Time and compounding happened. 3+ decades later, I chose to retire at 56. Today, I’m an 8 figure millionaire - due to my behaviors. Suddenly, however, I’m evil. I’m not a success story. I’m the problem. I hoard my money. I got to where I am because I was responsible and planned for my future. I never hurt, cheated or stole from anyone on the way.

I think it is more directed at Amazon, type of businesses that continue to show record growth but pay lousy wages and continue to layoff employees. It’s corporate greed, Not small businesses.

When people make insane profits off the suffering of others is the only time I’ve heard profits are bad.

Oil companies made 130 billion in profit after the start of Iran war - before the war 20-47 billion. Thats the profits we are talking about. Not the small business owner.

And it doesn't matter whether it's a small business or a large entity. Without a profit, there's no reason to even have the business and all the jobs go away. Thank You!

A good living is acceptable. Companies owning your house and paying you in scrip is not. This is why profit motive needs to be kept in check by regulation.
