Re: debts or not
I consider debt to be debt. As Steve said, doesn't matter who it's owed to, if you owe money you pay it back. End of. My brother borrowed money from the Mother once. Won't do that again, he'd use a backstreet loan shark next time, get better treatment.

Pay yer debt don't pay yer debt
Do a runner and move to Aus with more cash....well we could have done that but we decided to pay up in full and move with a totally clean slate.
I personally dont have an issue with defaulters,personal choice and all that but atleast we can sleep a little bit easier at night.

Re: debts or not
Me too. But some people seem to think that if the "government" picks up the tab or even "the banks" that it is ok and hurts nobody. They don't seem to realise that ultimately it is the rest of us picking up the tab and wondered if the OP had a) not worked that out or b) worked it out but still didn't give a stuff.

Ironic that the OP goes on about the "greed and stupidity" of the banks yet they are the ones in debt and are trying to shirk that responsibility.

I read it that 77hil was commenting that it was a bit rich of somebody with debts they cannot or will not pay back, to start calling banks "greedy and stupid". Pot. Kettle type of thing.

Re: debts or not
I partly agree with you - in the UK local government is very inefficient - but CT goes to pay for local social services, education, policing, fire brigade, rubbish collection etc.
These things have to be paid for somehow.

Re: debts or not
So when you move there's no reason why you can't pay off your debts.
What you're really wanting to know is if you can get away with it. Had you planned to sell the house and pay off your debts then you wouldn't be on here asking this question.
