Families who we’ve helped with over $300 million of unmanageable consumer debt resolved every year.
Should you use a credit counselor? Is bankruptcy the right option for your situation? At 4 Pillars, we help you find the most effective debt option for your situation. Our goal is to help you pay back the least amount possible, immediately fix your cash flow, and rebuild your financial future with ongoing education.
Each situation is different. Think of us as an independent perspective, helping YOU decide which option will help you keep the most assets and be the right choice for your goals and situation. From your local bank to Licensed Insolvency Trustees to credit counseling to debt refinancing—there are many different types of options (all with their own costs, pros, and cons) trying to win your money. Despite what they might tell you, any company or professional (including free credit counseling) benefits financially from you choosing them to deal with your debt.
4 Pillars offers an independent view. We could recommend that you consolidate your debt through refinancing. We could recommend that you file a consumer proposal with a Licensed Insolvency Trustee. There might even be an opportunity for you to deal directly with your creditors to reduce your debt. Either way, 4 Pillars offers guidance, experience, and solutions to solve your debt challenge based on what will be best for your long-term financial recovery.
You’ve seen the headlines. Canadians are greatly overextended in debt, a paycheque away from serious trouble, and further at the mercy of the vast financial system that controls most of our lives.
The stakes are high. The game is rigged. And yet, most Canadians know little about how the debt world really works. Even worse, they don’t know that with a little knowledge any Canadian can make the debt system work for them, instead of against them.
This book is a short guide to tipping the debt scales back in your favour. This book will be your weapon against debt, your financial education that should have been taught in high school, and hopefully a cold dose of common sense to help you avoid falling deeper into those financial traps that attempt to reduce our ability to build long-term wealth and divert our paychecks to the banks, credit cards, and high-interest lenders.
Canadians are unaware that credit counseling companies charge a fee. They are funded by creditors to offer their services. Not surprisingly, debtors who use the services of credit counselors often pay back 100% of their debt.
Canadians are also unaware that Licensed Insolvency Trustees are compensated based on the size of the consumer settlement, whereas the bigger the settlement, the more they are paid.
Like any professional service, our fees are clearly outlined at the outset of the process. However, our clients agree that the fees charged are tiny in comparison to the debt reduction gained, and the improvement of their financial situation, improvements resulting from our guidance and expertise.
The creditors don’t fund us. We don’t receive a percentage of what you pay back; therefore, we have absolutely no conflicts of interest. Our allegiance is only to you, the debtor, we are committed to helping.
