Hi Rocky!

This isn't just as simple as it sounds, so I looked into one of my favorite websites: http://www.investopedia.com/

And I asked: "what is debt?" I'd like to tell you it is,... well if this, ummm, It depends,... So I just copied the various results for YOU to check out!

Good luck;

BTW; just add the link above to your favorites, in the "Links" folder and you can position it on the top Menu bar of your browser, so the next time you need a little help on Investor terms you will just click it and ask your question. Kapeesh?
