I think (aiming for) growth is also necessary to offset risk. Naturally business will not be equally good from year to year. If you don't create surplus in the good years, you'll find yourself in trouble in the bad years.
- saraid216 14y agoGrowth is like... the opposite of surplus.
- Tichy 14y agoHow so?
- fauldsh 14y agoBecause any surplus saved for the bad years is money that could have been invested in further growth.
