stat heard this morning.....

.....over half of the personal bankruptcies in the US last year(and apparently most years for the past 2 decades), were due, at least in part to medical expenses. Sad. How often, Res, does that happen in Canada?

[Pudfark]

Should triple after the first of January...
However, should be ok after about 10 years....based upon the last two decades you mentioned.

Should triple after the first of January...

why? And, I ask expecting real answers, not the usual 'witty' crap. Nothing, but nothing in the law would indicate anything past the fact you are spreading a load of manure, as usual.

I've heard of people who've had to claim bankruptcy because an injury or medical condition stopped them from working.
Bankruptcy due to medical expenses? I suppose it could happen if you left the country for medical treatment and had to pay out of pocket. I've never heard of anyone or know anyone that that has happened to. But it has probably happened. I'm sure it has. Law of averages and all that.
But bankruptcy due to medical expenses if you stay in Canada...... I don't know anyone or have ever heard of anyone that has happened to.
We don't get hospital bills, dude.

Well...How long does it take to recover from filing "personal bankruptcy" in years.....less than 10 ?
What is the taste of manure? I'm just asking cuz, apparently, I'm all hat...? Manure, is your expertise.

Objectivity is not your best suit.
Just so ya know...it's the one I wore everyday.
