Given the story posted in TC's picture--an inpatient hospitalization stay would have precluded the guy from selling his Jeep, meaning he physically had no capital to pay rent. He'd be evicted, to which his Jeep would be the only shelter at that point. If he sold the Jeep, he'd still have to deal with bigger trouble finding a new place to rent to on short notice. The immediate problem of homelessness would make it difficult to hire a lawyer and be able to go through the motions to declade bankruptcy. Then your credit is completely shot + history of eviction would make securing rent at a new location an insurmountable challenge. Dude was stuck between a rock and a hard place. I'm not surprised he tried waiting it out. When faced with homelessness, I'd imagine most people's threshold for what is a medical emergency to be pretty up there. --- "He has two neurons held together by a spirochete." ...
