I realized the other day that I felt a little jealous when a woman at Curves was bragging about all the new expensive furniture she bought. She declared bankruptcy this summer so she "doesn't have any bills to pay anymore". I had an awful urge to tell her off.
I guess I felt resentful because there have been several times in my life when I've worked two full-time jobs to pay off my debts (mostly medical expenses).
I think too many people declare bankruptcy simply because it's easier than working to pay their debts
Don't get me wrong, though, I have NO problem with bankruptcy if it's due to situations that can't be helped like medical expenses, death, etc. I am only upset with those who have lived beyond their means with fancy vacations, cars, houses, etc.
