Should I continue my small business? Keep employees or just shut my doors and close up shop?

Why take the risk and work hard?

If I've already made enough to set my family up well, why bother?

    You shouldn't risk anymore because you have no idea how your business will be affected in the future. You might get tax hikes that make your business unprofitable or less profitable. You might need to buy expensive healthcare or get sued. You might get slapped with new fines from the EPA. People might get jealous of your success and demand that you share the wealth with struggling businesses. Who knows, life is short and go enjoy yourself and spend time with family. That is most important in life. God Bless!

    You never know what inflation will do to the "enough to set my family up well" will do.

    Secondly, think of the employees.

    Why don't you sell it off if you are not interested anymore?

    OK

    No, you'd probably run it into the ground . Sell the business to a hard worker who is more mature and less egocentric.

    Just close up shop.

    Your heart is no longer in it.
