Long story short: used to have great job making close to 6 figures. Lost that job 3 years ago and am now self employed with loads of ccard debt and a mortgage.
Just got back into freelancing and I pull in almost enough to pay the mortgage but had to stop paying ccards and now several of them are in collections. I don't want to lose the house and have no wage to garnish. So what could hypothetically happen in Ohio, for instance, especially, if a collector was to sue me? I don't have money to pay them and can't borrow any. I am not sure what to do: file bankruptcy or do nothing.. ??
