REMEMBER: BANKRUPTCY IS NOT A BAD WORD

People have had problems with their debts since time began. The word "bankruptcy" comes from the latin words "bankus" and "ruptus" which literally means to "break the table." This is how the Romans delt with those who could not pay their bills. They broke the merchants table in the market place preventing him from doing business. The fact that we have a "Chapter 7 bankruptcy" is a direct reference to a biblical directive to free debtors from their debts every 7 years.

Throughout history people have been beaten, imprisoned, executed, and humiliated because of their financial troubles. Currently people are not put in prision for not paying their debts, no matter what your debt collectors say, it just isn't true. The purpose of a modern bankruptcy is to give individuals a "fresh start."

What do Thomas Jefferson, Wolfman Jack, Wayne Newton, Burt Reynolds, Ulysses S. Grant, Walt Disney, Harry S. Truman, Donald Trump, and Daniel Boone all have in common? Each suffered serious financial hardships. If you are reading this Web page the odds are you are suffering from financial hardships as well. The first step to recovery is talking to someone who can help.

Rest assured, no one in my office going to make you feel bad because you have financial problems; we sell relief.
