    Saying you have $25k in exemptions is an oversimplification. You can see CA exemptions at http://www.bankruptcyaction.com/caexemptions.htm You choose one of 2 systems. If you don't have a home with equity, you would probably use system 2. The exemptions on that website aren't quite up-to-date because of CPI increases. The increased figures as of April 2010 are at http://www.courtinfo.ca.gov/forms/do...exemptions.pdf. Page 1 is system 1 and page 2 is system 2.

He said that was fine, as long as it totals 25k or less.

    Any opinions on this? We live in Ca. Thanks

    I don't now the total exemption but it is close to 25k. We had 3 cars and one was 8k another 3K last one was upside down so it didn't matter. We had all the other usual household item and just list them within their cash value. I say unless you got some big ticket jewels it's not going to affect you. The trustee never ask about anything just name rank and SSN.
