Just got home. It went OK, I was grilled on my stock trading account though. The trustee actually had a wry grin on his face when he asked me where I got the idea to trade on margin. I didn't have an answer, I just said that's how I invested. Other than that it was just the standard questions.
The lady who went first did NOT have a good meeting, it was continued. I don't know if she was 7 or 13, sounded like 7 since she was surrendering a home, she apparently owned a couple of different properties. Her attorney should be dragged down the street, he did not prepare her at all, he didn't even have 6 months of pay stubs from her, and she was trying to hide her bonus money, obviously, and he was going to let her try to get away with it. A creditor showed up at her meeting and exposed it and got the hearing continued. However, the trustee said at the end of her meeting, "you're a single mom with two kids right?", even though he already knew that. I think he was just pointing it out to let the creditor know he didn't appreciate his badgering her. Again, that struck me as odd because she was obviously trying to hide income. During her routine questioning she said that her take home was $1900 on the 15th and 30th of each month, the creditor had her tax returns with him and pointed out that she was actually making over $100K per year and that she did not fully disclose the child support she was receiving. Her attorney really screwed up.
