What Is a Bond?

I ran across a short video (HT to NPR's Money Planet blog) for explaining different types of bonds. It was produced by the people at Slate.com and uses a Schoolhouse Rock format. I think it could be useful for anyone explaining stocks vs. bonds in a basic economics or personal finance course.

Let me know your students reaction. Or students viewing this, please share your thoughts.
