There was a report on Radio 4 about bankruptcy, debt and mental health and they claim that not only are people with mental health issues more likely to be in debt and be declared bankrupt. But debt itself is a cause of mental health problems.
Hello,
The roots of the word bankruptcy can be linked back to the Italian Renaissance period. Back then if a merchant was unable to pay back his debts, his creditors would get together and destroy his trading bench. This was called banca Rotta and fro Banca Rotta, we get Bankruptcy.
