2. Business Damages: A business owner who files for Bankruptcy can reasonably expect to ruin all chances for future loans and credit, drastically reducing his business' chances of success. This could constitute a significant financial loss not only to the business owner but to all others he is associated with.
3. Ruined Credit History: Bankruptcy will remain on your Credit Report for 10years and it will remain in the Court Records for 20 years!

4. State of Financial Crisis: Once you are declared bankrupt, all your bank accounts, credit cards etc will be closed. Anything that you might be leasing (like your vehicle), or renting to own, will be immediately returned to the owner. This can cause serious financial hardships.
5. Diminished Social Standing: Personal bankruptcy can ruin your social status, or just be a cause of embarrassment and shame. Familial relations can also be stressed due to bankruptcy as you may lose your position in your family. Relationships with Friends & Family can also become strained - you may even be seen has having a lack of trustworthiness.
6. Restrictive Quality of Life: People who have been declared Bankrupt may find it extremely difficult to rent or own a car or a home, or to become insuranced, apply for a security clearance, etc. As you can see, this could dramatically affect the chances of having a normal (or even secure) standard of living. To ensure a safe and happy future, it is advisable to avoid bankruptcy.
