If it makes you feel any better, even Presidents, Nobel Prize winners and Donald Trump have had their own share of bankruptcy and financial difficulties. There is no aloneness in this ‘broke’ corner. Maybe the only thing that is different is the levels of ‘financial difficulties’. Your bad could be my best. Check out this list we came across of famous bankrupts. In it are 3 US Presidents, big car manufacturer’s founders, and even the man who gave us electricity. Brokenness is just a...thing! It happens.
