A Survival Guide To Debt

Just a little off topic for my blog. Well maybe not off topic, but straying toward helping people with financial problems before they need a bankruptcy attorney.

A good friend of ours at the firm, Mitchell L. Allen, released a book this summer called A Survival Guide To Debt: How to Overcome Tough Times and Restore Your Financial Health. With that he also launched the Web site www.asurvivalguidetodebt.com.

The book has been weel received and he has been making the rounds of radio talk shows and television news programs talking about the advice he offers in the book from his years of experience runing the Debt Education and Certification Foundation, a non-profit group that helps educate consumers about their responsibilities to their creditors.

I mention him today because I think the book will help many people facing financial problems to regain their confidence and understand one of the fundamental things that Mitchell has been saying for years and that this firm shares with all its clients – You Are Not Your Debt.

The debt you have accumulated should not define you. You are a person, not a business transaction. Business transactions go bad everyday. You are not the only one to have accumulated debt you can’t afford, the news has been full of stories about that for the last year and a half.

I encourage anyone who is struggling with financial problems to go to the Web site and get a copy of the book, or look for it in the self help or financial sections at Barnes and Noble or Borders.
