@terryw, I hadn't considered that before (The bit about not being able to get professional accreditation). Could you please point me in the direction of more information about the professional limitations of bankruptcy?

Also, on the subject of trusts, I understand that using trusts can shield me from personal liability if something goes wrong with an asset and shield my assets if something goes wrong personally. If I was to invest through a trust, would this remove any of the limitations of being a discharged bankrupt?
