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

Question

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??

Sounds like your business model isn’t working very well. Maybe reconsider the business you’ve gotten into.
