Bankruptcy in Sydney - Are you going to get bitten?

When people in Sydney 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 see one last sunset before he dies. The boy was hesitant, but the rattlesnake promised not to bite him in exchange for the ride. They journeyed together only for the snake to ultimately bite the boy despite his promise not to do so. The snake's answer was 'You knew what I was when you picked me up.'.

Getting the right financial advice in Sydney when it concerns Bankruptcy is a lot like that little boy's encounter, laden with risk and danger, and normally skewed for the benefit of the individual providing the advice. Often you'll get bitten unless you know what you've picked up before you move forward (avoid the rattlesnakes). I learned the problem with obtaining financial advice as a teenager, and it has been fundamental to Bankruptcy. I'd been keeping my nose to the grindstone 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 rather high and investing your money was really profitable. I spent some time researching several investment options, and I went to visit a few financial advisors. It was obvious 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 really different idea of what I should do. This puzzled me so much that it put me off the entire idea of selecting any of them.

I'm sure by now you have read more than enough on the internet to be totally confused about Bankruptcy and just what to do. It would most likely be easier for me to help you learn about the nature of the financial snakes you might be grasping while you are attempting to get to the bottom of your financial issues in Sydney. In essence, you have to try and figure out what your overarching choices are, do your very own research into where to proceed with your plan for Bankruptcy, and after that approach the things you feel is best in Sydney for your needs. Basically, you have 3 options for who to turn to.

The first option is a Solicitor - This may look like the go-to approach when you seem to be in trouble. But there is only just so much support they can give on this matter. There are definitely specialist legal advisors in bankruptcy, but their experience comes along with a hefty price.

Another option you may consider is your accountant - they are incredibly helpful and vital to the task of managing your business, but for the most part, when you are considering Bankruptcy, your accountant won't be much help to you at all.

Your best option? A Financial Counsellor that can outline debt consolidation, personal insolvency agreements, and basically all you need to know when it comes to Bankruptcy.
