I filed bankruptcy recently. Just a stepping stone to prepare me for success 🙌 not failure to help others manage their money.

Does bankruptcy mean that the person can no longer do the job? I guess being poor at some point in your life means that you should be shunned and denied opportunities. You really want to kill social mobility that badly?

If the employer can legal run a credit check and you know they are going to, make sure to have a discussion up front. Last thing you want is for them to find out about this after you’ve already been given an offer and quit your previous job…

I know at least out here in California, the law was recently amended to disallow employers from running a credit check as part of the screening process.
