Bankruptcy Filings - 2008
According to some recent stats, both personal & corporate bankruptcy filings increased from 2007 to 2008. Bankruptcies seem to be rising in many states & some people think that the numbers will only continue to rise in the immediate future. In fact, in 2008, the number of bankruptcy filings is expected to exceed 1 Million! One of the more common reasons that some people file for bankruptcy are large medical bills that can’t be easily paid back. Another common reason is the loss of a job. And finally, unsecured debt, like credit card debt, can get very large, very quickly, if not properly managed.
