Who pays for lunch? Need advice
Help! Need to know. We got a loan for our last building purchase from a bank. We're going to lunch with them tomorrow. Who pays for lunch?

I don't consider borrowing money as "giving someone business". They are your partner. In many cases, lenders have more money in the deal than the owners do...and the lender's return is usually much less than the owner's profit. I'd buy lunch all day long. They can get the next one.
