    Age Poll

    Although not scientific, I was wondering about age bracket and state for the forum members.

    Can't do a poll for state since there are too many, but maybe just post the state after the poll.

    I wonder if the number of BK filings have anything to do with the states hardest hit with unemployment and/or housing market decline.

    Also interesting to know might be if you think you would have benefited if you filed sooner.

          PA and also would have done this sooner had we known it was a real option at the time.

          Previous debts and lack of work (hubby was in lumbering) is mostly what got us here.

                I'd like to state for the record I indicated I was in the 46-50 range but my co-petitioner (lovely bride) would fall in a much younger bracket!*

                  We filed in WA but have since moved to CA. As for filing earlier, yes I wish we had. We fought it for so long and it really took a toll on us. Post-BK was soooo much better!

                      Ditto. I should have filed in 2000.
                      BK 7 filed and discharged in 2004 after 30+ years of perfect credit. Life HAPPENS.
