Definition: A legally declared or recognized condition of insolvency of a person or organization.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look today,
At a tricky word that can lead folks astray!
We’re tackling ‘bankruptcy,’ it’s true,
Let's break it down for me and you.
The dictionary gives us this clue: “A legally declared or recognized condition of insolvency…”
Now, what does
that
really mean? Let’s see if we can glean
A clearer picture, a brighter scene!
Insolvency
is the key, you understand,
It means someone simply cannot stand
The weight of their debts, it's quite a plight,
They can't pay what they owe with all their might.
Think of it like this: if you spend more than you earn,
And bills are piling up, a worrying concern...
You’re heading towards insolvency, feeling stressed and low,
A situation where you just can't seem to grow!
Bankruptcy
, then, is the formal name,
When a person or business feels this same shame.
It's a legal process, a step they take,
To reorganize debts for goodness sake!
It doesn’t mean the end, though it seems that way,
There are paths to recover and brighten the day.
Does that make sense? Any questions you might pose?
Let’s discuss this topic, let's really know how it goes!
