No, lend means to give to someone; borrow means to have someone give you something that you return after a certain amount of time. For example: I'll lend you my pencil. Can I borrow your pencil?

Why the interest on a loan is a business expense and a tax deduction but the principal payments are neither?

Because the princial payments are your simply returning the money you borrowed. WHEN YOU BORROWED THE MONEY, IT WAS NOT TAXABLE INCOME, RETURNING IT THEN CANNOT BE TAX DEDUCTIBLE. (Or every year I would borrow an amount say equal to my taxable income from all sources from someone/thing (bank, brother, friend who I lend the same amount to at the same time), and pay it back the next day...creating a deduction, and eliminate all my taxable income from all other sources).


Can you get a loan if you have a bad credit rating?

Depends how bad a rating you have, whom you are seeking to borrow from, and what the terms of the lender are. 1) Many institutions will lend you money if the bad rating isn't below a certain point. This limit may not be the same among all lenders. 2) If one or two institutions refuse to lend to you, it doesn't automatically mean that all others will follow suit, though it is an indication. 3) Some lenders will lend to those with bad credit ratings but will impose stricter terms. Another point: it also may depend what, if anything, you've been doing to improve that bad credit rating. A recent, consistent upswing in your monetary behavior may possibly swing the lender's decision in your favor.
