  • Is a Bankruptcy or Consumer Proposal Right for You? (Ep 24)
    Aug 15 2024

    This week, Licensed Insolvency Trustee Nicole Olsen joins us to talk about ADHD, bankruptcies, and consumer proposals.

    She shares her expertise with us and answers all your questions about your options for managing debt payments that you are having challenges with. She also shares her ADHD diagnosis story with us and some strategies that work for her to manage her career, life, and workload. Join us to hear if a bankruptcy or consumer proposal is an option you should explore. We answer so many questions, but here are a few: - Is there a cost to meeting with a trustee to explore your options? - Can all debts be included in either of these options? - How is a co-signer impacted if I file a proposal or bankruptcy? - Will I lose my car or home? - What happens to CRA debt and student loans? - Does my spouse/partner also have to participate? - Will my credit ever be able to recover?
