Can you answer come_on_kiss_the_gun’s question about Bankruptcy?:
I was just wondering what is the difference between Chapter 7, 10 & 13 bankruptcies. How did the new law that Bush passed now affect bankruptcies (or does it at all)? I’ve heard everything that you can’t file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy anymore to you have to take financial planning classes thereafter. Also, is it advisable at all? I know normally people say make it your last resort, but I am beyond in debt and do not have any other resolutions. Any horror stories after filing? Any positive stories? Please enlighten me.

Can you answer jen’s question about Bankruptcy?:
I need to consolidate my debts, either by getting a loan (unlikely with my credit) or through a settlement company. I want to use a good one, though, so does anyone have any recommendations? I could easily file bankruptcy with my income and lack of assets, but I would rather pay off the debts. Some of the collections are hostile, now, though, because I have so many different ones after me that I can’t possibly make my payments each month to each of them. This all stems from two hospital trips earlier this year. I don’t even own a credit card, so I’m not financially irresponsible. Just poor and uninsured. Any reccomendations would be very much appreciated!

Can you answer perkins’s question about Bankruptcy?:
I have A LOT of credit card debt from opening a business and having to sell it in one year because of family responsibilities. Saw a bankruptcy attorney, but the options don’t seem to work for me as there’s no way I could ever pay off these debts.
I know it’s very immoral, but what will actually happen if I just stop paying on them? I know I’ll be inendated with phone calls and lose my good credit standing, but can they attach my bank account or any other asset?
