Sure, just don't complain about Open Source licenses after you chose it for your business. And don't claim it to be open source when open source doesn't work for your business.

You choose open source or you don't. Either way is fine. Just take responsibility for your decision.

It's simple, really. I don't understand why so many business owners complain so much that open source doesn't protect their business... It's not meant for that.

Ah, totally agree with this.

Well, life is hard, things are not always easy, running am business is difficult and stressful, looking for ways to make open source profitable is noble, and also investors who "gave" an absurd amount of money want it back plus some more, of course.
