Doesn't everyone dream of being out of debt? Isn't investor money "free" because you don't have to pay it back? Can't wait to get rid of your building mortgage? Or maybe you can't wait to buy out your partner?
Learn what is an intelligent balance between debt and equity for startups and established businesses and why your preconceptions might be keeping you off the right path for growth.
