Lending money is a risk that can be lucrative, if done right. Promissory notes, a statement that the borrower makes to the lender to pay the borrowed amount in full with interest at a specified time, is the legal instrument you can hold on to should the borrower fail to fulfill his financial obligations. If you are the borrower, you’ll need to draft a promissory note, especially if you are borrowing from an established institution such as a bank or a school.
