Should I keep pumping my personal money into a business after five years of operations?

[King Belieal]

It is expected that a business that is up to five years old should be able to generate enough funds to meet it's running costs and provide profits to the owner. Such profits can be used to develop the business.

Should I still spend my personal business on a business after five years of the business running?

 

[Kross]

I think that after running a business for five years, the business should be able to cater for it's recurrent needs for business survival.

In this case it depends on you, do you still see potential in the business? Do you still have enough person funds to keep pumping in? If you stop pumping in and the business falls, what plans do you have next, these are the things to consider.

Though we believe that after years of having a business it should be able to run itself with its profit but in reality it is not okay. from experience the business still needs external inputs

 

[Min George]

Even if you have to give financial support to the businesses, the business should not be completely dependent on financial boosts from the owner after five years.

This will depend on a different situation of a business if pumping in more money into the business would help expand it then it would not be a bad idea

 

[Niyi Br]

You can still pump in more of your personal money into the business as a form of investment that would expand the business.

 

[Nomad]

If your business already has a sufficient funding, I do not think it is necessary to pump in your personal funds

For me l would stop injecting my personal money into a business that is three and above years since their launch. That is because a good business is expected to have grown in sustainability in that time range.

 

[Augusta]

I agree with you, if it about expansion the way to go is to still pump in more money into the business
