NORCROSS, GA, December 27, 2012 (Press-News.org) The Tampa bankruptcy attorneys of Clark & Washington want to remind Atlanta residents that bankruptcy is a problem that no one is safe from. For most people, finding out that the President of the United States has filed bankruptcy can come as quite as shock. While the current head of state has not shown any personal signs of going under financially, this simply cannot be said of some others. In fact, the nation has seen 4 president's file for bankruptcy. One interesting example is that of Ulysses Grant. The 18th President was in office from 1869-1877, and during this time he implemented a range of influential policies as a former army general in the Civil War.
After being in office, Grant used his money to travel the globe with his wife. They dined in fancy restaurants everywhere they went and took board in some of the world's most exotic hotels. Clearly, the former President was not hurting financially. Unfortunately for his sake, a poor investment and partnership led Grant to file bankruptcy. Grant's business partner Ferdinand Ward embezzled nearly $100,000 at the time and was eventually sentenced to prison for his shady business practices. Grant found himself so much debt that he resorted to selling off all his valuables. As expert Tampa bankruptcy attorneys, Clark & Washington hope the moral of this story is being made clear to residents.
All it takes is one bad financial decision for debt to spiral out of control. The vast majority of us do not have millions of dollars to begin with (as did Grant), so making sound money management decisions is all the more important. In this economy, bankruptcy in Tampa has seen a sharp increase. If you are finding yourself unable to pay your bills, Clark & Washington offer a free debt consultation service.

Orlando Bankruptcy Attorneys, Clark & Washington, Address David Crosby's Bankruptcy
2012-12-27
A founding member of Crosby, Stills and Nash, as well as the musical group, The Byrds, David Crosby found himself in a very lucrative position. Both musical groups were popular, but with Crosby, Stills and Nash, Crosby found instant fame, money and drugs. By 1974, the group was constantly embroiled in fighting and ended up splitting two years later. Largely into drugs by the mid 1980s, Crosby was almost penniless. His attempt at a solo career floundered, and he landed in a Texas jail for nine months on a drug possession charge.
By 1985, Crosby was in debt for millions ...

The Atlanta orthopedic specialists at OrthoAtlanta would like to encourage parents to get your kids ready for sports before they begin to play by taking them in for a sports physical.

"Obesity and extreme obesity in childhood, which are more prevalent among minority and low-income families, have been associated with other cardiovascular risk factors, increased health care costs, and premature death.
