personal debt

Buried in ATM card debt.

I am now not employed, but working on a business that's not profitable yet and I have no timeline as to when I may see revenue flowing in. However, it has come to the point at which I am no longer able to do that and my regular payments for all my bills are too high. What would be the best option for my situation? Should I try a debt consolidation agency, which I have investigated may not be the best solution unless I have cash to settle ; file for bankruptcy or default on all my Visa card debt? I don't know precisely what occurs if I just default and don't file for bankruptcy. Are there any legal implications? -- Dan Dear Dan, The key sentence to your query is : I am now not employed. Whilst you try to get a business off the ground, all your options to pay back your debt are nonexistent without a steady revenue flow. You ask all the right queries as to your options. I will be able to break down your options and explain how these relate to others in similar situations. Debt consolidation : Any credible debt consolidation company, or DC, would not take you as a client. You don't have the funds to finish DC programs and will possibly make some payments to the company, that may cover their costs just, and then find it very unlikely to pay. But those terms are based totally on your capability to pay those terms inside twelve to 36 months. Therefore , a 20-percent settlement offer increased as the balance also increased. Credit support : This does not seem to be a choice for you either, as you must be in a position to make an once per month payment over the following 3 to 5 years. Credible credit support agencies won't take you as a client because you'll be not able to keep up with the payments. Default on the payments : The stop paying and hope for the best option does not sometimes work. This will also be called the head-in-the-sand approach. Having delinquency marks on your credit score followed by judgments will make it extraordinarily troublesome for

you to re-establish positive credit. Some issues to think about before filing bankruptcy are : how quickly you ran up the debt and if you made money advances or serious balance transfers, or if you have made big-item purchases -- like plant for the business.
