Definition
Financial help given to a failing company or institution to prevent it from going bankrupt, or jumping out of an airplane with a parachute.
Etymology
From 'bail' (to remove water from a boat, or to secure release) and 'out.' The meaning evolved from the aviation term (bailing out of a plane) to the financial term popularized during the 2008 economic crisis.
Kelly Says
The 2008 financial bailout happened because some people thought certain banks were 'too big to fail'—but that's a gamble, because it teaches institutions they can take huge risks and the government will save them anyway.
