  1. Filing bankruptcy doesn?t mean that you won?t have any more bills to pay at all, so make sure that you?re always keeping up with the payments. Many people make a habit of making only the minimum payment because it is more comfortable; however, this habit can cause it to spiral out of control very quickly.
