Doesn't Everyone Need To Know More About Bankruptcy? Joking Yes But Here's Help For Those Who Need It!
By Chad McDonald
Certainly this article is about but I want to tell you up front that you may come across the word 'budgie'. Don't worry, the article is not about birds; I do like budgies though. I use the word 'budgie' or 'budgies' sometimes in place of budgets because a budget is known to get budged and also as it makes me laugh!
Okay, so is a procedure which allows a debtor (someone that owes money to someone else) to get a court ordered exemption from his debts. In some cases can act as a valuable method to get rid of debts. But everybody who faces any financial difficulty should not file for bankruptcy.
Should I file bankruptcy?
There is no quick and easy reply to this question. This is something you should discuss with a attorney or a credit counselor as they can fully evaluate the benefits and costs of bankruptcy. The kind of debt you have can be a relevant factor and really the final decision is always up to you. Just make sure you know the consequences and benefits fully before you make a final decision. Allot of cases could have easily been prevented with some diligence and a tight budget.
Other than the big 'B' what's available?
The options are numerous. Your financial situation is primarily going to determine your options available. So, get some financial counseling before filing and make sure you know the full consequences of your options.
Here are some possible alternatives to bankruptcy:
Financial Management
It means allotting a nice deal of control, you can employ a financial manager for paying your bills, and to place you under an "allowance" until your financial conditions are back in proper order. This can be especially helpful if your financial problems are a result of bad spending habits. In North America we are told we can have anything we want without paying for it (credit) and that if it's bright and shiny, you probly deserve it so don't restrain, go ahead and rack up that credit card. Ooopsss..... bit of a rant there but I think you get the idea. For a less encroaching form of management by simply having a financial counselor help you create a budget. Just remember that budgets only work if your super disciplined and don't have problems with buying bright shiny objects (:--).
Give Your Debts A Workout
Choose a financial counselor very carefully, as there are lots of self-professed counselors available in the market who will charge huge fees and services. Try to find a non-profit financial counselor. Sophisticated creditors already know that its hard to collect debts, whether you declare or not. Collection agencies usually take large commission for collection debts, litigation can be expensive and timely, and
forcing debtors to file a case is not always a guarantee of recovery anyway.
How about your house?
If you have a home, try to refinance your home to pay debts. By refinancing you can get long term financing at a very low interest rate, which allows you to pay your debts faster. Avoid dealing with companies that are offering you to combine all debts into single low payment loan, usually they have high interest rates and only want you to pay the interest and not the principle. Consider obtaining a loan package only through a known bank or credit unions.
Credit Repair Offers Are Often Scams
Before or after bankruptcy, some companies attract debtors and offer them packages such as repair bad credit or even promise them to remove a from your credit history. Allot of these offers are fraudulent. There are way's to boost your credit rating but I'll save that for another article.
So to conclude: don't tempt yourself with bright shiny objects and do whatever you have to so you don't spend more each month than what you earn. A well cared for budgie will go along way. I trust this to be of some assistance or at least gave you a laugh anyway. Anyhow, don't sweat it; there are more important things in life than money or the lack of it. Have a great day!
