how do business owners who operate a business that loses money year after year, afford to pay themselves?

Let’s say you went $100,000 in debt starting a business, and it costs $5000 to operate every month and you make only $4000 every month for the first year.
But you have a house and family, etc.

Where is the money going/ coming from??

You operate the business.

You pay yourself $100,000
You pay $900,000 in materials
You pay your staff $240,000 in total

Your business makes $1,000,000 but is valued by outsiders to be a profitable venture at $2,500,000. You take a loan against your valuation and continue growing the business.
