Tsunao Okumura
Tsunao Okumura (奥村 綱雄 ''Okumura Tsunao''; 5 March 1903 - 7 November 1972) was the president of Nomura Securities between 1948 - 1959. He was seen as the king of Japanese stockbroking in the 1950s. As the son of a wealthy confectioner, Okumura showed little ambition from a young age. At nineteen, he entered Kyoto University where he enjoyed the softer pleasures offered to a well-to-do college student. His father gave him 100 yen a month spending money, at a time when twenty yen was enough to enjoy a very comfortable lifestyle. Taking his classes lightly, he spent much time in Kyoto's dance halls along with other rich young men. Okumura left university without impressive grades and was rejected by the Mitsubishi, Mitsui , and Yamaguchi banks. He succeeded in entering Nomura's research department with a personal introduction.

Bond (finance)
In finance, a bond is a type of security under which the issuer ( debtor) owes the holder ( creditor) a debt, and is obliged – depending on the terms – to repay the principal (i.e. amount borrowed) of the bond at the maturity date as well as interest (called the coupon) over a specified amount of time. The interest is usually payable at fixed intervals: semiannual, annual, and less often at other periods. Thus, a bond is a form of loan or IOU. Bonds provide the borrower with external funds to finance long-term investments or, in the case of government bonds, to finance current expenditure. Bonds and stocks are both securities, but the major difference between the two is that (capital) stockholders have an equity stake in a company (i.e. they are owners), whereas bondholders have a creditor stake in a company (i.e. they are lenders). As creditors, bondholders have priority over stockholders. This means they will be repaid in advance of stockholders, but will rank behind s ...

In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes.
