Receiving an investment signifies that you are receiving a prepayment for future costs and expenses. To generate revenue, you must cover these costs upfront. If you lack the funds necessary to manage current expenses while aiming to raise revenue, you might need to borrow money or attract investments. However, as a recipient of these funds, you cannot use them freely; this money does not belong to you. Legally, your options for utilizing this money are limited: you can either receive it as a salary from your expense account, as a dividend from profits after deductions as a shareholder, or pursue official management incentives.

The principal is not returned now in the loan business but must be returned in the future, providing the present incentive as a “delay repayment” in advance.

Surprisingly, many businessmen do business without knowing the value they add and the cost. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
