No. A monopolist must do his research and make sure that with his income after having monopolized, he will be able to pay back whatever loans or debts he has in a timely fashion with his consecutive income.

Monopolists are guaranteed to earn a positive economic profit because they are the only seller in their industry.?

Monopolists can often earn positive economic profits due to their market power, which allows them to set prices above marginal costs without competition. However, this profit is not guaranteed indefinitely; it may be eroded by potential market entry from competitors, changes in consumer demand, or regulatory interventions. Additionally, monopolists must still consider their costs and the elasticity of demand for their products when determining pricing and output levels. Therefore, while they have the potential for consistent profits, various factors can influence their ability to maintain these profits over time.

Why is profit maximisation not a reasonable financial objective?

People in business do need to make a profit, or their business will fail, but profit is not everything. Profit made by illegal means can result in going to jail, for example. Profit made by socially destructive means (even if they are legal) harms the society in which you live. Short term profit is not always compatible with long term profit. So, there is a bigger picture.
