I did it before, I was up to my ass once before, thought I deserved this or that just because I worked, then I realized I deserve nothing I couldn't pay for.
Now when I buy a car, it's cash, a boat it's cash or anything else I want... My credit score is falling like a rock because I have no debt and I am no longer important to them unless I am paying payments and debt...
I could care less about credit, it's good for one thing... To buy a house at a decent rate, other than that they can keep it.
Bank your money, save up 20-30k while u are in bankruptcy... when you are able to buy again, put the big payment down to avoid PMI then get a 15 yr note that is no more than 25% of youy NET household income per month
can I ask you what the % of your NET income the house payment is or was?

That’s pretty much our plan.
Pay off debt; rat-hole money, then get into a home for no more than 15 yrs.
Excellent posts, by the way R8rs.
