Debt settlement a bad alternative to bankruptcy By Liz Weston NerdWallet.com, Aug 30, 2017 (a summary from South Bend Tribune) Many people believe that hiring a company to settle their debts is better on their credit, will cost them less in the long run and will generally be better than a bankruptcy. This is what […]
A typical story of a homeowner and the con artist scum who prey on desperate homeowners: “I tried to keep my home despite the fact they started foreclosure proceedings. I self represented myself and filed initial bankruptcy chapter 13 forms which stopped the first trustee sale/ auction date. I got stuck on the second set […]

I was fortunate enough to be invited for a short interview on a local radio station. The short discussion is about financial challenges and bankruptcy. This is just an audio program, but it is only 12 minutes long. I hope the information is informative.

I highly recommend this great article in the New York Times about bankruptcy and the elderly. Everyone should understand the issues related to protecting your own or your parents’ hard earned retirement funds when faced with a financial crisis.
Ten years after the passage of the “new” bankruptcy law we find a new class of Americans “the permanently insolvent”. You won’t find reference to this group in any financial magazine.
