What is a bond? What do I do with it? How do I buy one? How do I know if I'm buying the right kind of bond? What if the bond becomes useless tomorrow - who's going to pay for my loss?

And wait, why are there so many differences between bonds and other investment options of its kind? If you have similar questions and doubts about bonds on your mind, then you have come to the right place.
