What is Zombie Debt?

How do you resurrect your finances after debt rises from the grave?

How do you protect yourself from old debt?

What happens when debt expires?

Happy Halloween!! Debt doesn't have to be scary, but debt that resurrects itself can be. What is more scary than debt is burying your head or ignoring your debt. In the State of Florida, debt is valid for 20 years from the time a judgment is entered (and we have seen one or two cases where the creditor filed to extend the debt beyond it's 20-year life). In some cases, creditors are trying to collect debt that has been discharged in bankruptcy, that has been expired, or that is beyond the statute of limitations.

What can someone do in a scenario like this? How can you protect yourself? That's the subject of today's podcast episode.
