Bankruptcy should not be an option if you take care of your finances well. We understand that there are situations where it is unavoidable such as change-of-life circumstances (death in the family, divorce, etc.) but there are situations as well that are avoidable if you are aware of your financial status. We have known people who don’t even open the bills that arrive at their home because they don’t want to face the reality that they are in a financial mess. Financial stability also depends on the individual. If you are aware of what your expenses are versus the income that comes in, you will less likely spend more than you have to.
