Personal finance to many individuals is just that: personal. The stigma behind financial trouble often leads to secrecy, deeper debt, and shame.
While this is unfortunately the reality of some individuals, bankruptcy doesn’t have to be this way.
In fact, bankruptcy is a viable option for individuals and families who have fallen on hard times and can be a great way to absolve debt. Many myths about bankruptcy, like never recovering a credit line after filing, put undue pressure and seemingly close off any option of recovery, when in fact, recovering from bankruptcy can feel like a fresh start.
According to a study by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, people who filed bankruptcy had access to more new lines of credit than those in a poor financial state. They found that individuals who took on their debt themselves and did not seek help became “insolvent” and felt hopeless and would have preferred to file bankruptcy.
Which side would you rather be? Would you rather have a sense of relief and reduced stress knowing that your debts can be forgiven, or would you rather carry the weight of the debt on your shoulders and live a lifetime of harrassment from debt collectors?
