Congrats to the Chicago Blackhawks!

Congratulations to the Chicago Blackhawks for winning the Stanley Cup. Many Blackhawk fans forget (or try to block out) years ago when games weren’t televised and the Madhouse didn’t sell out.

Then, the Chicago Blackhawks needed a fresh start. So the owners go together and restructured the organization. The Hawks signed Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews. Now the team celebrates its third Stanley Cup win in just six years.

The Blackhawks organization recognized what they were doing was not working. Similar to being in debt. Making the minimum payments is ok. It keeps credit scores at acceptable levels. But when meeting the minimum payment means dipping into savings accounts, it’s time to rethink what you are doing.

Bankruptcy can save you thousands in interest (think saves like Corey Crawford in Game 6). Instead of paying minimums – you can start saving for retirement, kid’s college, etc. Peter Francis Geraci is a Chicago legend like the Chicago Blackhawks. Give him a call to stay out of the debt penalty box.
