    For Those that have Helped, Mods, & Owner

    BK was never part of my vocabulary. And then all of a sudden one day I realized the financial mistakes I made, that I couldn't pay, and I'd never get ahead much less be able to pay everything off. Growing up- I never heard the word - BK.

    It is absolutely surreal to me that I discharged 80k. I still can't believe it even though it's true.

    Big BIG lessons learned. Now I look at how I spend every penny....every dollar. And I've cut way way way back on a lot of unneccesary spending. I still have student loans that need to be paid so I'm thinking about a part time job to help accomplish this so that I can actually get ahead and start accumulating an emergency fund. I was never a cheap person but now I'm proud to say that I am 'cheap'....lol.

    But seriously - while I'm totally estatic over this, I still can't believe it. Yeah - filing was a lot of work But then poof....all gone. Unreal albeit true.

    Thank GOD and thank you all so much (site Mods & Owner) for this site which educated me and enabled me to file pro-se (with confidence) and also to the many people who helped me by responding to my questions. Bkforum.com is most definately the best public service website where bankruptcy is concerned. I hope that every person considering filing will find this site before seeking an attorney - just so that they can be educated in the process.

        Good Post!

        I also have no idea what I would of done without this site. Its very nice to be around other people that understand and care about your situation! Plus you can find out anything here with no sugar coating, people give you honest answers that your own Attorney may skirt around.
