Currently, all funding for my used book store business comes from relative. What other forms of funding (e.g. stock, bonds, venture capital) might be logical alternatives for my business and what would I need to do to qualify for them? How would the risks of such alternative funding sources compare with the risk of continuing to fund for my business through a relative? Given this, how would I fund my business in the future? what are the basic concepts regarding money and banking, financial management, stock and bond markets, and risks involved in business
