Bankruptcy changed my life for the better but that does NOT mean it’s the right choice for everyone. Before filing, make sure you understand exactly what bankruptcy could mean for your finances, assets, debts, credit, and future goals. Talk to a qualified bankruptcy attorney and look at all of your options first. My experience is just that.. my experience, (not financial or legal advice). For me, filing Chapter 7 gave me the opportunity to reset financially instead of continuing to drown in debt I realistically couldn’t get ahead of. There’s so much shame attached to the word bankruptcy, and before going through it myself, I believed a lot of the same myths. I thought I’d lose everything. I thought my financial future would be destroyed. I thought bankruptcy meant I had failed. My actual experience looked very different. I’m sharing this because I think we need to be able to talk about bankruptcy without shame and without pretending it’s an easy decision or the right solution for everybody. Do your research. Understand the consequences. Get professional advice for your situation. But if bankruptcy is the right option for you, know that your financial life doesn’t have to end there. Sometimes a fresh start really can be a fresh start. #debtfree #financialfreedom #bankruptcy
