Bankruptcy Myth 07
Filing Bankruptcy is somehow "Irresponsible".
Filing bankruptcy is an act of responsibility. It is taking responsibility for the debt, and more importantly, for improving the situation for you and your family. It starts by acknowledging how serious your debt situation is (or will soon become) and making up your mind to take a decisive step to end the cycle of debt and obtain a fresh start.
Want to know what is irresponsible? To ignore the situation or to continue to struggle hopelessly to pay the minimum amount on credit card - that's irresponsible. That's not going to solve your debt problems. Filing bankruptcy – if it’s right for you – can be a crucial first step toward creating a sound financial future for the rest of your life.
