When people in
Hobart ask me about Bankruptcy, I
tell them the time-honored Native American Fable of the little boy and the
Rattlesnake. An old rattlesnake asks a passing young boy to carry him to the mountain
top to discover one last sunset before he passes away. The boy was hesitant,
but the rattlesnake promised not to bite him in exchange for the ride. They
travelled together only for the snake to ultimately bite the boy despite his
vow not to do so. The snake's reply was 'You knew what I was when you picked me
up.
Obtaining the
right financial advice in Hobart when it comes to Bankruptcy is a great deal
like that little boy's encounter, filled with risk and danger, and generally
skewed for the benefit of the person offering the advice. Often you'll get
bitten except if you know what you've picked up long before you move forward
(avoid the rattlesnakes). I discovered the problem with obtaining financial
advice as a teenager, and it has been vital to Bankruptcy. I'd been working
hard for a few years, and saved up a little bit of money I wanted to invest. It
was the early 1980s so interest rates were very high and investing your money
was rather profitable. I spent a few years researching several investment
options, and I went to visit a few financial advisors. It was transparent that
they had more money than I did: they had great suits and plush offices, they
all seemed to exude confidence and have all the solutions. What hit me was that
they all had a very different strategy of what I should do. This confused me a
lot that it put me off the entire idea of choosing any of them.
I'm sure
currently you have read more than enough on the internet to be totally
bewildered about Bankruptcy and exactly what to do. It would probably be easier
for me to help you understand the nature of the financial snakes you could be
grabbing while you are trying to get to the bottom of your financial issues in
Hobart. Essentially, you need to try and figure out what your overarching
alternatives are, do your own research into where to proceed with your plan for
Bankruptcy, and after that approach what you feel is best in Hobart for your
needs. Basically, you have 3 options for who to turn to.
The first option
is a Solicitor - This may seem like the go-to approach when you seem to be in
trouble. But there really is only just so much assistance they can give on this
matter. There are absolutely specialist legal advisors in bankruptcy, but their
knowledge comes along with a hefty price.
Another choice
you may think of is your accountant - they are incredibly helpful and vital to
the task of operating your business, but for the most part, when you are
thinking about Bankruptcy, your accountant won't be much help to you anymore.
Your best
option? A Financial Counsellor that can outline debt consolidation, personal
insolvency agreements, and basically all you should know when it comes to Bankruptcy.
