As a business owner there is nothing wrong in borrowing money to improve your business and that's called a good debt because you hope that when the business grows it can pay back the debt and even produce profit. Meanwhile, if you have a business that is still struggling and you take out of the money you're supposed to use to improve the business to buy property or assets then it is a bad debt.

Sometimes you can borrow people money with the hope of getting the money back with profit but it turned out that you couldn't get the money back, neither the profits.
