There was a time when I completely lost confidence in how I managed money. Every cent I spent was accompanied by the fear of losing it all again. This constant money stress took a toll on my family, leading to arguments with my husband about expenses and setting a negative example for my kids. I didn't want my children growing up thinking that money was something to be feared. I knew a change was needed, as I couldn't continue living this way. My journey has been filled with highs and lows.
My husband and I originally were on the path to achieve financial freedom through positively geared investment properties, generating enough passive income to cover our living costs. However, bad investment choices and a property market crash left us with unmanageable mortgage repayments and severe financial stress. We even reached a point where we struggled to afford basic things like being able to buy groceries and just not knowing how we were going to get through the week! Have any of you been there too?
The decision to file for bankruptcy was incredibly tough but necessary. It felt like a massive weight had been lifted from our shoulders. During this period, we used every opportunity to educate ourselves, manage our finances wisely, and still enjoy life without the money stress. By the end of our bankruptcy, we had saved enough for a house deposit, and with the help of a wonderful mortgage broker, we secured a home loan quickly.
Today, I stand on the other side of this journey, having rebuilt our financial stability. But what is the point of success if you can't share it with others? That is why I decided to help those who are going through bankruptcy too, so you can all learn from my mistakes and fast track your own bankruptcy recovery.
