And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us.

We need better accounting.

So liabilities. Liabilities.

Let's say assets and I'll talk about margin requirements

And then we have the debt, the debt of the company, or the

Let's think about its liabilities.

One fifth of my wages go to taxes.

I owe the bank 750,000.

And so when the Federal Reserve or any Central Bank prints money, and it buys debt, it goes out into debt markets and it buys it, it usually buys the safest kind of debt, but that affects all of the debt markets, it goes out and buys in the debt market, they're essentially shifting the supply curve of money to the right, they shift the supply curve to the right.

This is 120,000 in equity, market value of equity, he has another 105,000 in liabilites.

This was equity.

liabilities as well.

It had 5 million of debt.

Minus 1.075 that was the max that I could borrow

It doesn't matter.

I had 100 of cash, no accounts receiveables,

Let me just make everything clear.

These are the assets that our five buddies have together.

So over here you had another liability.

So in this case, our assets are 250,000.

My assets are 250,000.

Now you could also have a yield curve for other types of debt.

He only needs 90,000, but let's say he borrows 100,000.
