  • What could the motivations of the owner be, if not to make money?
    Please add to my list:

    • prestige
    • tax avoidance
    • boost retirement savings (in the USA, business owners can stuff their retirement accounts with LOTS of cash.)
    • Create and disguise a “sex pad”
    • improve the community by providing jobs and/or needed services (start a coffee shop so that there is a coffee shop.)
    • time filler

    Of those, I think a very healthy 401K contribution from the employer to the employee would be motivating to those already paid well.

    Many employees already use the business as a sex pad. (Conference rooms can be gross.)
