“Dear Steve,

My bankruptcy case has been filed and I will be going to the meeting the the trustees in a couple of weeks. I did alot of cash advances and alot of withdraws out of my account. I am afraid they will think I am being fraudulent and not discharge anything. I am very scared!

What is going to happen to me? I made a lot of mistakes and let people take advantage of me and my money. I let it happen to myself it is my fault.

Traci”

The Answer

Dear Traci,

Your bankruptcy attorney would not put forward a case that he or she did not think would be accepted.

So let’s deal with this head on. By your own admission you made some bad choices and screwed up. The best thing you can do now is to learn from their mistakes. As I always say, “There is no sense wasting a perfectly good mistake.” Learn from it and don’t make those same mistakes again.

The fears you have are real in your head and scare you. But what you should do is call your attorney, discuss your specific worries and let your attorney calm you nerves based on his or her experience with the trustee.

It will all work out. It always does.

Please update me on your progress by posting updates here in the comments section of your question. I’m very interested in how this works out for you.
