Thanks for your post lenna. I enjoy a intelligent discussion.
Your example is the exception and not the norm, just read the posts on this forum. IMHO BK abuse is 95%.
Good insurance(health/car/life/auto) is very important part of financial security. I know someone whose teenage son had very serious illness(aplastic anemia) and spent weeks in the hospital but it did not cause financial hardship because of good insurance and lots of emergency savings.
I do not make people feel bad, I encourge them by telling them that they have the ability to solve their financial problems themselves with hard work and frugal living and avoid BK.
People tend to take my advice wrong and call it mean when it really is tough love which I think is the best type of advice. They say, a sign of a good friend is when they can give you unpleasant advice.
When the going get tough the tough get going.
