How to Avoid Bankruptcy by Settling Your Debts (Hour 1)


Listen Later

"Before you give them any money—two things you have to remember—get it in writing and never give them electronic access to your checking account." — Dave 

 

Dave takes calls from across America to answer questions on your life and your money. Featured Call: A widow calls Dave for help after she made bad financial decisions when her husband was murdered several years ago, and she can't seem to move forward in life or get control of her money. A family from Virginia visits the show to share their debt-free story: "Coordinating our dreams was key. We sat down and talked about what we wanted to do in the future, so we had a direction we wanted to go to—moving the same direction together."

 

Caller Questions:

  • What should I do now? I made poor financial choices after my husband died.
  • Should I take money out of my 401(k) to make progress on the Baby Steps?
  • How can I avoid bankruptcy with all of my debts in default?
  • Should I fix or sell my car?
  • How do we plan for a potential move and transition to a new job?
  • Can we charge my wife's hearing aids?
