I take home about $600 per week from my current job after taxes. I work a 2nd job pulling in about $120 per week after taxes. My wife can't hold down a job but is looking constantly. With her illness, it seems she won't be able to keep a long term position. She has filed for disability and been denied, we are attempting an appeal, but that is not a short process and I need help now..
So what exactly am I supposed to do? Is it possible to file for bankruptcy with this amount of debt? I'd be happy with getting rid of the car, but it is too far underwater for me to do anything with. I do not have any cash flow to get out from under it.
