Bankruptcy Alternatives Explained

Bankruptcy lawyers – the lousy rats. They and their silly, ridiculous "Ghostbuster" style commercials – "We're ready to believe you!". Really, they have no shame. They would have you believe that bankruptcy is the pot of gold at the end of debt rainbow, the light at the end of the debt tunnel, the fairy godmother of your Cinderalla in debt tale.

Puh-lease.

Bankruptcy is akin to personal financial suicide. It destroys one's credit and credit worthiness. It causes more damage than 2 sumo wrestlers going toe to toe in a crystal vase shop. What a sight that would be on the evening news.

Rather than promoting bankruptcy, I would like to make you aware of bankruptcy alternatives. These are debt relief programs that get rid of debt like gangbusters. Credit card debt is what it is – a fact of everyday life. Unless you prefer to keep a stash of dollar bills under your mattress or in a shoe box buried in your backyard, chances are you have a credit card and some amount of credit card debt.

Avoid bankruptcy – this is what we should be trying to do at all costs. So let's discuss here in digital print why. As we mentioned, your credit score – you can kiss it bye bye if you file for bankruptcy. You can also expect the stain of a bankruptcy filing to stay on your credit record longer than a glass of merlot spilled on a white bear rug.

If you have the need to order new home utility service in the future such as gas, electric, water, internet, cable, phone – you can expect to be required to pay hefty deposits in order to get that service.

Thinking about renting an apartment? Think again. You will be denied based on your bankruptcy filing and your pitiful credit score. Folks, your average major league pitcher would have a higher batting average than the credit score of a person who files for bankruptcy.

What did that funk song from the 70's say? … "How Looooow can you go? How Looooow can  you go?" You feel me?

Like there is no WAY your credit score could get any lower.

Debt Relief – it doesn't have to be some John Mellencamp "Hurt So Good" kind of thing. it doesn't have to cause harm to have some minimal benefit.

The true debt relief programs that help without causi ng harm include debt settlement, debt consolidation & debt consolidation loans, as well as consumer credit counseling.

If you or someone you know are struggling with credit card debt, jump online and research these programs. And never, ever get involved with bankruptcy…

or a bankruptcy lawyer for that matter. But that's another story.
