Middle Class Mothers Most Susceptible to Bankruptcy

Are you a middle class college educated mother living in California? Did you know that statistically you are more susceptible to Bankruptcy? Read on to learn more!

According to Harvard Law Professor, Elizabeth Warren, educated Middle Class mothers are most likely to file for bankruptcy. This fact remains true despite most women who file have attended college. In fact, Professor Warren notes that having a college degree doesn’t seem to protect women from filing bankruptcy as much as it does for men! Professor Warren attributes this anomaly to the fact that women more often find themselves placed in the single parent role.

Perhaps the most alarming statistic from Professor Warren’s piece is that more women will file for Bankruptcy in 2010 than those who will graduate from college, receive a diagnosis of cancer, or file for divorce! To temper this trend Professor Warren advocates that women spend less and have a financial backup plan when having children. Only time will tell if this advice goes unheard.
