Wt_know Supersonic March 15, 2010 Share March 15, 2010 (edited) liquidate all assets & liabilities. period ! the bottom line is to offload as much debts as possible. unless your friend want to find a loophole don't want to pay $$$ by declaring bankrupt, and transfer assets to another person. many people think that declaring bankrupt is the easiest way to get out from debt, but it is not. reduce debts and work out a repaying plan is the way to get a new life.

Zanter 3rd Gear March 15, 2010 Share March 15, 2010 (edited) 1st of all, it cost money to declare bankrupcy like 5-10k in legal & OA fees. So creditor's will fork out the money to do so. It's not somehting to take lightly. In fact bankrupcy is a financial prison & will linger very long after u get discharged from bankrupcy. Getting future loans will be problematic. Best to get a credit bureau to reorganise your debt by arranging a regular debt repayment plan and negotiate a better interest rate. Once create the shiz , no use to run away, face the problem by cutting spending to the bone, earn enough money to pay off everything and dont get into credit shiz again. Otherwise whole life is one big shizs For help look at Credit Help. Goodluck! Edited March 15, 2010 by Zanter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zanter 3rd Gear March 15, 2010 Share March 15, 2010 Seems to me that your "friend" is more worried that his bao bei car will kena repo than kena bankrupcy . He may think its an escape route cos he is not aware of the implication. Transfering assets is usless. He will get called up by the OA to declare everything..if lie go to jail, He wanna do that? So from 1 shiz, dont go make it a bigger shiz. Admit, beg, borrow then work 2 jobs to pay up. It no choice. Only the VERY rich can afford not to worry about Bankruptcy cos the Banks more worried than them . Look at my previous posting to help on credit issues.

The_Bear Turbocharged March 15, 2010 Share March 15, 2010 hi all, my friend is hovering ard the idea of getting himself declared as a bankrupt as he cant afford repayments over his loans..could i jus enquire if his car can be trf to his dad wout his dad incurring his loan as it's still under the term loan as he jus bought it 6mths ago..he dont wan to lose it as he spend quite some money on refurnishing it though..any advices? thks on behalf of my friend.. Is your friend's name Daniel or Jerk? If so, then no one can help them. The car cannot be transferred before the loan settled. So it cannot be transferred to his dad. If he has $$ to settle the loan, then no problem in the first place. If he defaults and declare bankrupt, the car will be repossed and he will end up still losing the car. If your friend cannot afford the car, best is to sell it and cut lost. Negotiate with the credit firm on the final settlement (Difficult). Borrow from friends and family (easier).

Introz Clutched March 15, 2010 Share March 15, 2010 losing money/no money still dream of having car? = get a life.. face the reality my friend been bankrupt before good that all legal cannot chase u for a moment bad it will hunt u in long term -cause u will be paying them slowly and enduring with high interest when calculate back = - -like most people say any loans from bank or govt will be difficult.. must wait like 4-6years after the bankrupt is null ( not when u declare bankrupt ) -cannot go out country.. -own possesion will be confiscated = auction -family members might be affected also = hard life if you say transfer to his father... why dont his father/family members pay for him first.. ( best solution ) the choice is yours Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alim 1st Gear March 15, 2010 Share March 15, 2010 (edited) Your friend is so naive...let's be clear Your friend - Hirer of the Car Bank - Owner the Car Want to transfer? Can but you must full settle with the bank, bank give release letter, then you can transfer at LTA. Can't pay? Bank will repossess the car, auction off minus your fully settlement figure. Just 6 months into loan, he has got a lot to top up. Bankruptcy? Looking for an easy way out and keep the car? Wait long, long...you think the banks are stupid or what.
