Arguably, a critical reason entrepreneurs give up on their goals and consider quitting their businesses is pressing financial difficulties. We investigated the hypothesized positive relationship between entrepreneurs’ financial stress and their intention to leave their businesses in one experimental and two field studies. Supporting the challenge stressor–hindrance stressor (CHS) framework, all three studies confirmed the hypothesis that financial stress is positively related to quit intention concurrently and over time. In addition, the results showed support for affective commitment (but not continuance commitment) to the entrepreneurial job as a mediator of the relationship between financial stress and time-lagged quit intention. This research testifies to the importance of focusing on variables relevant to the entrepreneurial context when studying the relationship between stressors and work outcomes. In addition, the insights derived from our results may be used by practitioners aiming to offer optimal consultancy to entrepreneurs in times of financial stress.
