c`est la vie

I`m about to go BR myself and for anyone worrying/stressing etc i just wanna say its really not worth it. At the end of the day we got ourselves into financial difficulty- SO WHAT! Its really not the end of the world, if anything its a brand new start and for most its yet another lesson to be learned. I know i`m certainly never touching credit again anyway! Look at yesterdays tragedy in Madrid - you really don`t know whats around the corner and its not worth worrying about a small matter like bankruptcy!
Life goes on...

    I've flown in & out of madrid a fair few times as well....and used spanair in the past as they were always professional & freindly...I hear they have now found the flight recorders so hopefully greiving familys & freinds will have a reason to how this horrible tragedy happened.

  • A vey good way to look at things. There are more important things in life to worry about.. Enjoying oursevles whilst we can People are in alot worse situations than we are..... Who really cares about us going bankrupt. Sad to think there is some small petty people out there, who will make a huge deal of it...

    Have to agree with all of your comments. You only need pick up a newspaper or switch on the news to see or hear of really, really tragic things.
