Melissa Jacoby's New Blog "Credit Slips"

I
t's a big day for blogging here at UNC Law School! I've just learned that my colleage Melissa Jacoby has a new group blog on bankruptcy and credit called "Credit Slips."

She reports today on a new study that shows that more people are afraid of falling deeply into debt due to a medical emergency than because of terrorism or natural disasters. Interesting stuff. Check it out!

The study said that people were more afraid of falling into debt because of a medical emergency than they were of being hurt or killed in a terrorist act or losing a home due to a natural disaster, not falling into debt because of a terrorist act or natural disaster.
And, for once, people are right about what is the greater threat.
