A very short blog today. I have been, and continue to be impressed with many of my clients who come into my office to remedy their financial position. What I mean by that is the popular conception is that many people abuse the Bankruptcy system. They buy electronics, cars,etc., rack up a credit card or two…or 5, and then file for Bankruptcy. That is simply not the case. There are many clients who have walked into my doors and said “Look, I am in a terrible financial situation. Things haven’t been the same since (medical reason, 9/11, death in family, unemployment) but I have debts to pay and I want to pay them. Can you help me?” I am constantly surprised, and to be honest, inspired by those people who feel that their debts are their obligations and will go to great lengths, even though their credit is in a terrible state, to make ends meet while paying their debts. Just thought people should know that not everything is what it appears.
