		<description><![CDATA[Starting a business can be quite expensive. Options for financing are often seriously limited. Your personal assets, credit cards, and perhaps retirement fund have all been tapped, and you find that you are still short. Bank financing is notoriously difficult for a new business to obtain. Angel investors generally have pet interests, which your company may or may not meet. Thus, you might turn to your family and friends to cover your needs. Borrowing from relatives may seem to be a fairly safe option. After all, they love you and understand you, and are interested in seeing you succeed. However, this type of arrangement can carry serious risks and pitfalls. What happens with your company can begin to affect your personal relationships with your loved ones.]]></description>

Loans are often necessary for startup capital, but investors and financial institutions often want to see that a business is profitable before they'll agree to lend money.
