Actually, the laws have changed a bit since the 2005 Bankruptcy law was signed. Instead of the "yard sale" way of valuing your assets, you now have to value your assets at the amount it would cost to replace them today with items in exactly the same condition. For more information, see Findlaw's excellent sections on bankruptcy and the changes from the 2005 law. http://bankruptcy.findlaw.com/bankruptcy/bankruptcy-basics/bankruptcy-overview-overview(3).html#8B5C102F-3D8A-4836-A2A3D553A00E015E
