Nothing else to celebrate than the accumulation of debt as if it's a freebie?

God forbid that I ll treat the fact that lenders are lining up to offer debts as a success factor.
Heaven forbid.

BOND
A bond is a debt investment in which an investor loans money to an entity (typically corporate or governmental) which borrows the funds for a defined period of time at a variable or fixed interest rate. Bonds are used by companies, municipalities, states and sovereign governments to raise money and finance a variety of projects and activities. Owners of bonds are debtholders, or creditors, of the issuer.

You truly are a financial illiterate, if you say bond is different from borrowing.

This is investopedia below for free.

Just as people need money, so do companies and governments. A company needs funds to expand into new markets, while governments need money for everything from infrastructure to social programs. The problem large organizations run into is that they typically need far more money than the average bank can provide. The solution is to raise money by issuing bonds (or other debt instruments) to a public market. Thousands of investors then each lend a portion of the capital needed. Really, a bond is nothing more than a loan for which you are the lender. The organization that sells a bond is known as the issuer. You can think of a bond as an IOU given by a borrower (the issuer) to a lender (the investor).

Of course, nobody would loan his or her hard-earned money for nothing. The issuer of a bond must pay the investor something extra for the privilege of using his or her money. This "extra" comes in the form of interest payments, which are made at a predetermined rate and schedule.

The main difference from the conventional borrowing is that the bond issuer determines the interest rate and tenor whereas the lender in the case of borrowing dictates the repayment conditions.

Your stupidity knows no bounds.

ephi123:


That is absolutely incorrect.

Bond issuer needs money, without which he will go bust. People put money into the bonds, there is a set time the bond issuer must pay them back.

"Conventional borrowing " to use your words, the "bond issuer" instead of raising bonds approaches a bank, gets a loan and there is still a set time he/she must pay back.

Bottom line,
Bond issuer MUST pay back the money. So therefore borrowing is borrowing.
