Talk:Debt

Criticism
Is the the majority of the "At household level" paragraph in the criticism section needed? Actually not even sure why most of the criticism section is even included. ThorOdinsonThor (talk) 16:49, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

Debt vs liability
Is there any difference between debt and liability (as used in accounting)? Nemohuman (talk) 21:29, 31 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Yes. Debts are created by borrowing and court orders. An obligation that does not arise from either of these is a liability, but not a debt. 67.180.143.89 (talk) 19:39, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
