Am I allowed to go Bankrupt?

Post by JeremyFisher »

Long story short I'm considering Bankruptcy, I've heard somewhere (can't remember where) that postal workers can lose their jobs if they declare bankruptcy? Anyone have the truth behind this?

Thanks for your time.

Basically I think there is no hard and fast answer, it all depends on the reason for banktuptcy, if it was voluntary and which country you live in, But in essence as long as you are honest you should be fine. (Check your own circumstances first though).

There's been people who have been jailed for violent offences who've been allowed to return, so a little matter like the inability to manage your personal finances shouldn't matter any more..
