A funny story from the world of credit…

Okay, since here at DFW/Denton/Lewisville Bankruptcy we’re always addressing serious topics, I decided to keep it light today.

There’s a story buzzing around the internet that a 3 year-old recently got an American Express Gold Card application in the mail. Also, there are many report of dogs and cats getting credit card offers. If that’s the case, why is it so hard for qualified folks to get the applications??

Cities Filing Bankruptcy

The CEO of JP Morgan has recently stated that municipality bankruptcies (cities filing bankrutpcy) are on a rise. This is yet another effect of the recession – with income on the decline and foreclosures on the rise, cities are losing precious tax revenue and having to cut necessary services.

Analysts are looking to these cities as being most likely to file bankruptcy next…Detroit, and Harrisburg, PA.
