Historically, America’s greatness as a country could be measured by the social mobility of its citizens. If you worked hard enough at a well-defined goal, you could get where you’re going, no matter who you were or from where you started. Case in point, the election of Barack Obama—but is it really true that anyone can make a billion, and/or become President these days?

When I was a kid growing up in Birmingham, Alabama, money seemed to always be in short supply. My children today cannot fathom what it’s like to come home to a supper of turnip greens and cornbread … and nothing else. Or to spend ALL of Spring Break doing yard work around the house and planting the family vegetable garden. Or going on vacation by traveling to a cousin’s home in another state and sleeping on their sofa and eating their food. No, growing up, we didn’t go on the nice vacations, didn’t eat at fancy restaurants, and didn’t have the latest fashionable clothing. I didn’t even know what fashionable clothing was until the 8th grade when everyone at the private school I began attending wore shirts with those little alligators on them and tennis shoes with a swoosh on the side. I didn’t have one of those shirts and I certainly didn’t have those shoes. It was Kmart and Keds for me.

A savings account may be a luxury for many people trying to save money for their future, but for many Chicago families, saving money isn’t as feasible as it once was.
With the economy struggling to recover and people dealing with job loss, high-interest loans and credit cards that have kept them buried in debt, filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Chicago may be a sound option.

Filing for bankruptcy immediately stops creditors from calling and attempting to garnish wages and otherwise making life difficult. So, if a consumer is drowning in debt brought on by job loss, mounting medical bills, or predatory lending practices, consulting with an experienced Chicago Bankruptcy Attorney would be a smart move.
