we have lived in our home for 30 years but do to medical problems, a death in the family, and the recent economy we finally had to give up and file bankruptcy. we need to rent a home and don’t know how to go about it with bad credit my husband has been at his job for more than 25 yrs. we need help any suggestions
I currently have ,000.00 plus credit card debt and would like to settle and pay them off in the next month. I will have a lump sum to work with and am hoping they will accept 50 to 75 cents on the dollar. I have medical problems and work on commission only. Because of my health, not knowing how much longer I can work with my condition, I can’t consolidate and make monthly payments. My plan would work best for all. I just need some advice on how to communicate best with the creditors.
my wife an i are going in to see a bankruptcy lawyer next thursday. we have two cars 10 years old and are still paying on one we got last year. the other is paided off. we owe about 60,000 on credit cards and hospital bills and school loans. she was caught in a down sizing and i was put on ssi because of medical problems. we do have a mortage on our house. what can we expect to lose if we file for bankruptcy. how much will they take inside the house and if they will take one or both of our cars and even the house. this is very scary cause its was all good until i started having too many surgery and she lost her 16+ an hr job and now has to take a 10 hr. myself was put on SSI for good.
True, America has given the world more in terms of scientific advancements, military protection, etc., but what about day-to-day life? They don’t have job lock because their insurance isn’t tied to employment, they have freedom of speech, assembly and religion…and, yes, you can own a firearm in Australia —-look it up instead of listening to propaganda! They have a high per-capita income also and a reasonable tax rate, no one goes bankrupt over medical problems….so why do so many Americans say that their country is the greatest on Earth when Australia appears to be a pretty great place as well? Some could argue that it’s actually greater.
So, Australia is not the centre of the English-speaking world and they don’t have the bread basket that America has, what good are those two things if you’re not doing well in America? So what if Australia isn’t the centre and doesn’t have a fertile interior….we’re talking about day-to-day life of an Aussie versus a Yank, and from what I am reading, it sounds like the average Aussie has it better these days. Flame away with ignorant comments about the "poverty, fascism, illiteracy, violence and socialism" of this foreign land and how much they suffer and all want to immigrate to America. Australia’s great.
Five years ago this month, I filed a chapter seven bankruptcy action. After rebuilding my credit, I find myself in financial straits with credit cards, due to unforeseen medical problems.
Is it possible to file again?
I am currently living out of the country to help my in-laws while they are experiencing some medical problems. I want to know if my parents can file bankruptcy for me if they have power of attorney (in the state of GA)? I know I would have to go back for the meeting with the trustee and the counseling, but if they could file for me, that would really help in our situation. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
