“Dear Steve,
I am being sued by Citi. I have $48,000 in debt. I got in this mess because my husband had no work for a while. So I was just paying my mortgage and utilities. He is now working but most accounts have gone to collections and collections agencies do not want to accept monthly payment plans. I cannot file for bankrupcy because my the public information involved in bankrupcy may make me loose my position at work will suffer if I do. It is a political office position and filing bankrupcy will ruin me

Bori”
