Last week, we published a “True Debt Story.” It was about a man in his fifties who lost his business, fell deep into debt, and was forced to start over.
This was a true story from an actual 4 Pillars client. We asked him to tell us his story and we presented his words unedited.
It is a really powerful read and covers the despair, anxiety, and fear that comes with debt.
He was facing 200K in debt and bankruptcy threatened to take his assets.
You can read the story from the beginning here.
Debt looks bleak but it does get better
We’re happy to report an update.
After freelancing, he recently started a new business. The business is in an industry he loves.
He also reinvented his business model, opting for a leaner company with less overhead and less risk.
Recently, his business was featured in a popular local magazine. The feature story was about reinvention in the creative industry, showing his business as a model for other creative organizations to learn from.
His story goes to show that you do have options and there is always the freedom to rebuild your financial future.
