DEBT AND EQUITY
pg 20
• A quick primer on debt versus equity:
q Debt:
• gets paid back first, before any dividends get paid
• secured by assets (company, your personal)
• once debt is repaid (with interest of course), lender gets nothing else
q Equity:
• never has to be “repaid”
• keeps on “paying” forever
• you now have an investor partner who is in this, like you, for the long haul
