Bankruptcy can happen to anyone. It doesn’t matter if you’re a billionaire, millionaire, upper-middle class or blue collar. Bankruptcy doesn’t separate any working class. You may have had a job loss, a decrease of income from your current employer, a divorce, a medical emergency that changed your life forever, a bad business partner or bad real estate investments; all are potential factors for filing bankruptcy
Getting a loan after bankruptcy will be very challenging within the first few years, especially. You can’t file bankruptcy and immediately purchase another property with cash, this strategy may expose you to a potential lawsuit from former lender that you have a deficiency with. Bankruptcy doesn’t protect strategic defaulters. Strategic defaulters should not forget about the Fannie Mae 7 year ban.

- Don’t go back to the need to have than the nice to have rule for your financial recovery. Downsize your lifestyle, live by your budget and establish a savings account, stay focused on your financial recovery and don’t give up.
- If you’re self-employed and filed a personal bankruptcy, tighten your bootstraps with your business expenses, re-evaluate your business plan and pro forma.
