I know my family does not have one anymore.

My father, who used to half-own one, ended his days working for some large corporate farming outfit because he is a farmer. (The other owner wanted to sell out and my father did not have the capital to buy him out. No buyers were interested in becoming half-owners, so he had to sell.) They were not the best to him. He finally had an accident, got a settlement, and retired. But, he was a shell of the person he was when he had his own farm.

Which is different from my case, where I had nothing, I have nothing and I will never have nothing. So, bankruptcy is not that big of a change for someone like me.
