bankruptcy filing statistics
Have you climbed out of debt and changed your spending habits?? I need your help!?
My husband and I filed bankruptcy last year and we were bombarded with credit card and new car offers. We took the bait and now we have two new car payments and three credit cards that are over the limit. We have been paying on them each month, but still have not been able to catch up with the late fees and over the limit charges. Our total monthly expenses is equivalent to 97% of our income. How can we ever get out of this credit card hell?? I have heard that 90% of people that come out of bankruptcy end up in debt again. I don’t want to be one of the statistics. We really need some good advice. Serious answering only. I would be willing to share my budget with someone who would be able to help us manage our money. – Thanks You!
That sucks! In Indiana we have a program called CCC (Consumer Credit Counseling), I’m sure there’s similar if not the same programs in other states, they combine all your bills and get you A LOT lower interest rates for the credit cards and you just make a payment every other week (the same amount). Have you closed those credit card accounts? If not, you need to do so immediately. CCC has helped me and other family members out a lot, you should look into it. They get you onto a budget as well. I really hope this helps some.
