I have about $25,000 in cc debt and can no longer afford to pay all of my bills. We just decided that there are 3 accounts we will not be paying anymore. We make too much money to file for chapt 7 so I'm wondering, why would someone ever offer me a settlment? If they push it far enough won't they eventually get their money. Not that it changes my strategy, I'm out of money and now have to pick and choose which bills I pay. Thanks for the help.
