I am not sure what options I have for myself, so I thought I would give you an outline of my situation and to see if there is any help for me.
I am married, but most of the positive debt is under my wife. My debt revolves around private student loans. I know that these are very difficult to deal with in bankruptcy court, but I have a lot of debt with these loans, and the majority of the money taken out was NOT used for schooling. During college, just finished recently, I took an extremely large amount of money to use for gambling rather than school and living costs. I am not sure of the total amount, but I think I have a total of around $250,000 or so due to high interest rates and deferring due to lack of income.
Can anything be done? If I were to start paying on these loans, I would be paying roughly $2700 a month in student loan payments. That is more than I bring home in a month. I have caused so many problems with my family due to my addiction, I am ready to move on to a clean slate, but this debt is something that is going to haunt me unless something can be done.
Please advise if you think there is something that can be worked out with this.
