Avoid Personal Bankruptcy

Author: Peter Gitundu

Financial distress is a situation in which an individual is not in a position to pay their debts. It offers many people a new chance to start all over again after having paid their creditors. This move will destroy the debtors credit worth and in most cases force them to sell off personal assets. There are two chapters that an individual can file for a personal bankruptcy petition, the most common one being the liquidation chapter which allows the debtor to sell off their assets and pay pending bills.

There are various ways in which an individual can avoid filing a personal bankruptcy petition. The first step to this is to total up all the debts, Put this into two categories i.e. bad and good debts. Good debts could include home loans and students loans whereas bad debts could include loans on high-rated automobiles and medical bills. They could also be debts emanating from bad spending habits like gambling, gaming, and debts that arise from drinking too much alcohol.

The next step is to make a list of all your monthly expenses. Categorize these into necessities and non-necessities. The debtor should look at ways of reducing expenses on things that he/she may not need for survival. Once this has been done, the debtor is required to add up the minimum amount paid to the good debts and to the expenses that are on the necessities used every month. At this stage it is important that the debtor does whatever possible to pay off the debts.
