Tobin S primitive to file Chapter 7
« on: July 25, 2015, 05:40:57 PM »
Quote from:
Tobin S.

I'm going to file for bankruptcy on Tuesday.

It could have been worse for my creditors. I'm leaving about $16,000 on the table in unused credit on my credit cards. I'm current on everything and I'll be filing with a 753 credit score. They probably don't see that too often in bankruptcy court.

When my wife and I got together we both had a lot of debt. I was a long haul trucker and I owned my rig. I knew I couldn't have a good relationship with my wife unless I was home regularly. I took a local job that paid less thinking that I'd be able to sell my rig and my condo in a relatively short amount of time. It cost me $12,000 to get rid of the rig and I still own the condo. Between the two of them they account for about $28,000 in unsecured debt and I still owe about that much on the condo in which I am way underwater on. I've actually had that place up for sale for $20,000 and I couldn't find a buyer. Well, the bank is going to own it now. I also tried to absorb some of my wife's debt in a chivalrous but ill-fated move. My wife lost a decent paying job earlier this year through no fault of her own and is now working for $7.50 an hour. We need her income to help pay the bills, but she has been unable to find anything better.

I've tightened my belt and we've cut out things to try to make it work. I've leased my condo when I could. But even on our bare bones budget we're still coming up about $600 short a month. My savings are down to about $3000. If I manage to lease my condo again it will only give us about five more months before we are out of money. Might as well file now and put an end to the stress.

I qualify for chapter 7 bankruptcy. It will wipe out about $1300 a month in debt payments so we'll be back on the positive side again. I'll get to keep my car. Our house is in my wife's name and she is not filing. It will make my credit look shitty for a long time, but I don't foresee us needing credit any time soon. The next big thing will probably be a car for my wife and I think her current one will last another three or four years.

My wife was upset, but when I explained everything to her, she felt better about it. She made the comment that ever since we've been married we just can't seem to catch a break. I told her that this is a break. Imagine if we weren't able to do it.

Declaring bankruptcy over $16,000? My God, how pathetic. I could pay this off doing lawn care on the side. What a worthless piece of garbage. Yet another useless asshole I have to take care of.

Out of over 50 employees, I am the only person working at my current employer who has a college education as far as I know. The owner of the company does not have a degree and neither does the general manager. I know how to make that company better from two different perspectives, but, apparently, they think I'm more valuable driving a truck for them. There's no climbing the ladder for me at that place...

Indiana University Graduation


Dear Tobin:

Congratulations! The final audit on the Bachelor of Science in Business Administration degree you applied for has been processed and you have successfully completed all the degree requirements.

Your degree conferral date is December 15, 2014. Your degree has been posted to your Student Record and is viewable on your unofficial transcript.

I will place the order for December diplomas in mid January and expect them to arrive back from the printer by mid to late February. When your diploma arrives I will notify you at this email address to give you an opportunity to come by the Office of Student Records to pick it up.

That doesn't sound like an email from Indiana University.

Maybe a mail order college in Indiana, but "come by to pick it up" doesn't sound like a degree conferred by a legit university like IU.

DUmmies lie, all the time.

And just seven months later he's belly-up.

My understanding of Tob's post is that he won't be screwing his creditors out of that additional $16,000 by maxing out his credit card(s) before filing bankruptcy. How generous and magnanimous of him.

But your last sentence is correct, in two ways. Productive taxpayers will be the ones paying for any government social program bennies Tob might receive. And the unpaid debts of every person going bankruptcy are "paid" by solvent people, through those costs being part of the price of every product and service and the interest rates charged by banks and other lenders. Tob's lunch is only free to him.

    Question on paying down debt.
     
    I have a personal loan with a balance of about $15,700 and a credit card with a balance of about $17,700. I can pay down one of the loans by $5000. Both loans are at 9.99%. The payment on the personal loan is $463 fixed and the payment on the credit card is currently at about $310 a month.

    Which loan should I pay down first? Does it matter? Please elaborate with your reasoning.

Sounds pretty :bouncy: -oid. If Tob's is really going bankrupt - Chapter 7 or 11 - his "question" is meaningless. The court will divy up his assets among the creditors. OTOH, if he pays off a creditor before going bankrupt, that might be evidence that he has the ability to pay his debts, over time, and should not be allowed the protection of bankruptcy.

The whole story is a bouncy worth a maximum award of bongs.
No way is anyone financially worse off under owebuma and his owebumeconomy.
How could they be ???
Especially a lib.
Now if Tobin was to admit that his messiah has been an utter failure at everything he has put his fecal touch on, I might reconsider the validity of his claims.
But he would also have to admit he regrets his multiple votes for owebuma, and if he could go back, would change his vote.
