Low Bar Podcast Where's Your Ethical Bar in Business? — Ep. 5
Business, entrepreneurship, money, and ethics collide when Ben and Jon break down where successful entrepreneurs actually draw the line in their business decisions. This conversation is raw, direct, and loaded with real world examples people never admit publicly.
From OnlyFans challenges to overseas labor, nothing is off limits. This is not moral posturing. It is two entrepreneurs walking through the decisions real founders face and the ethical bar they set for themselves in business.
What would you do for money? What wouldn’t you do even if the market rewarded it? And where does the idea of ethics even come from when every entrepreneur is constantly balancing incentives, responsibility, family, risk, and survival?
This episode is a deep dive into how operators think about the gray areas, what they refuse to touch, and what they believe is fair game in the real world of entrepreneurship.
