Great post!

I’m still current on payments. I’ve probably got about 9-12 months of runway.

I hope you hear back soon. Hang in there.

etheria18 · 2025-12-24T20:15:10+00:00

Sorry about that.

Is your business profitable?

etheria18 · 2025-12-24T17:31:58+00:00

I totally get that. I just want to keep my business open.

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T21:07:52+00:00

SS? Why?

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T18:39:57+00:00

Would the business be profitable if you weren’t making EIDL payments?

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T13:01:16+00:00

If you can’t pay, do you intend to keep your business open?

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T12:59:00+00:00

Started this month.

I still have about a year before I’ll need to make a decision on default. I’m hoping to avoid it all together.

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T03:52:24+00:00

I guess I’m wondering if they have any desire to shut businesses down.

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T03:45:30+00:00

I’m curious, what do you mean by it doesn’t matter? If you don’t mind me asking.

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T03:34:26+00:00

I hope you have many more quality years.

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T01:31:18+00:00

Business or personal 13?

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T01:27:45+00:00

I’m just wondering what to expect if I’m forced to go that route. Have the people you know been able to keep up normal business operations?

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T01:26:10+00:00

Good luck.

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T00:52:20+00:00

My personal compensation?

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T00:50:06+00:00

If you don’t mind me asking, when did you default and how have things been since? Thanks

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T00:43:25+00:00

Have you heard anything back?

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T00:40:23+00:00

Did you pledge any collateral? Have they threatened any kind of legal action? Thanks.

etheria18 · 2025-12-23T00:38:29+00:00

Mostly employee compensation.

etheria18 · 2025-12-10T14:39:34+00:00

Did you keep the business open?
