Actually, a student loan is one debt you cannot write off in bankruptcy.
Yeah but I think they make an exception if you claim hardship. Actually you can claim bankruptcy on anything, you just don`t pay them lol! I mean what are they going to do? They cant do anything except sue you and most won`t because it isn`t worth it, unless you owe a huge sum. Only the IRS can really screw you over. They`ll garner wages, take stuff you own, take conrol of your bank account, and even send you to jail. Look at Wesley Snipes, that dude refuses to return to the US because he knows they`ll stick it right to him once he does. Like the saying goes, all you have to do is die and pay taxes. I put die first because they still make you pay once your dead.
