【Five years in, a decent month pays $4,000–$4,500—does that mean the business is doing well?】 A business owner on Reddit said a decent month means paying themself $4,000–$4,500, but bad months have hit zero. They've run a small service company for about five years. The business does okay on paper, but reinvesting, setting aside taxes, and skipping their own pay to make payroll can leave their take-home below what some employees make. “I don't say that out loud because it sounds like failure, even though the business itself is fine.” “I'm not fishing for sympathy. I honestly just want to know where I sit.” They asked what others pay themselves, how long they've been running, and whether their own paycheck eventually stopped being the first thing they cut. A commenter pushed back: if you can't pay yourself and you're barely making payroll, the company may not be self-supporting—and may not actually be doing well.
