Myth: You won't get a bank loan or credit card for ten years after filing bankruptcy.

Truth: You can start to rebuild your credit after bankruptcy almost immediately and qualify for credit in a short amount of time. Many lenders actually consider you a better credit risk after you have eliminated all of your debt.

Myth: Only irresponsible people file bankruptcy.
