Financial difficulties often have us feeling alone, isolated, or ashamed. No one wants to file bankruptcy and we often feel like we can’t reach out the people for help. These difficult situations are scary, but it is not a path you have to walk alone. Bankruptcy and debt relief are thousands of years old, and you will not be the first nor the last person to consider this route. As a former history nerd, I find history can be comforting when facing the unknown or the uncertain. It helps to know that people were in a similar situation years ago and they managed to survive too.
