20k in debt, spread to a lot of places. Kind of just want to file bankruptcy.
So to sum it up things got… bad? Basically everyone I lived with was unable to pay rent for what was supposed to be like a month and turned into 6.
I’ve spent the past 6 months in a diffrent living environment trying to recover but it’s actually gotten worse
To sum up what I owe
7k on a dead car (lasted 4 months)
5k on a dental loan
2k in credit cards two of which got closed because everytime I tried to make a payment, someone else got to the money first.
4k in medical bills
7k to an old apartment (not a broken lease. Just a bill they charged after due to me being unable to clean the place due to family/car issues)
2k loan to some loan place.
Annnnd 6k to the irs due to a mix of me being a dumbass and not updating my mailing address. I don’t actually think bankruptcy prices that but I would like to be in a position to pay that off.
I’m drowning in everything and almost every payment is a month behind. According to Credit Karma I have a credit score of 528.
I do have a different car with a different car loan. Jesus himself could not tell me why they approved me for 13% interest but I’d like to keep the working one. I live in an area where driving is nonnegotiable. I’m about 10 miles from anything, and there is zero public transit. Ubers would also cost me 800 a month minimum, and between car, gas and insurance I’m paying about 600
I owe about 7k on it. Besides that I have no assets.
My monthly expenses sit around 2000 a month(including car) and I make 50k a year but monthly it varies on the season.
No ged, no college, and I work in an industry where I could have a felony and employers would probably get over it so I’m not worried about finding a job with a bankruptcy.
Honestly is bankruptcy like… something I should call a lawyer about?
