59. move to texas
one of the few states that still has debtor protections. it is ingrained in the state's history. at one point in time, inscribing "GTT" - gone to texas - was considered a de facto form of bankruptcy.

there is no wage garnishment in this state.

the absolute worst that can happen to you in any event, depending on where you live, is wage garnishment.

the shit that people will tell you about not being able to get a job is purely a scare tactic designed to keep you in line and keep you being a good drone, although you will be disqualified for certain types of employment, for examples at banks, and i'm pretty sure you wouldn't be able to get a security clearance or become a cop.

individual people attach way too much morality to their debts. it's a double standard. corporations wheel and deal in debt reconsolidations and sales, but no one even winks an eye at that.

good luck.

and fuck the creditors.

you need to eat.
