All of these debts are at least three years old. I used to have to dodge creditors all the time but I have lived life under the radar for so long now that they seem to leave me alone. I don't have any bills in my name or a bank account in my name. I am thinking about bankruptcy in order to start rebuilding my credit, but I also think maybe my debts are so old that it wouldn't really matter. Either way my credit will be bad for awhile so what should I do? -
