Default Re: Couple of Other Economics Questions - Quickies once again

When you issue bonds, you are borrowing money from people.

If I wanted to build a new business, I would sell bonds to raise capital. People would invest in my bonds and I would be borrowing money from them in return for repayment of interest and the original investment in a set period of time.
