    I live in Minnesota and have cc and personal loan debt and living on ssdi with no assets I'm not late with any payments yet. I planned to stop paying altogether this month.A FRIEND SUGGESTED I PAY EACH $5.00 my question is what would they do? would it keep collections and possible judgements at bay??

    Hi Honey, :)

    Your SSDI check is exempt from creditor attachment.

    You can relax about that part.

    Just to clarify, your check is exempt from garnishment. However, creditors may still get a judgement against you, and 25% of savings you may have can be taken if you file bankruptcy and SSDI has been mixed with other funds. 75% should still be protected under exemptions.

    Sure,

    I assumed when she said no assets, she meant no savings. But you're right Lilly.
