I am bankrupt, how do I tell my parents?
Dec 11, 2017
My family all think I’m a big shot.
Mum likes to brag to friends and relatives that I'm rich and successful.But the only place I'm going is down the drain. I'm living a lie and I'm so ashamed of what I've become.
I pretend to be Mr Big Shot but I'm in debt and my business is no longer trading.
I lost my premises and had to fire my last remaining staff member when the bank called in my loans and my ex-business partner fled the country.
I'm too ashamed to admit to my folks that I've lost the plot and I'm dreading seeing them on Christmas Day because I don't know how I'm going to get through lunch without choking.
