What Debts Can Be Discharged in Bankruptcy?

One of the biggest questions that people have in bankruptcy concerns what types of debts can be discharged. Generally speaking, unsecured debts are dischargeable in bankruptcy while secured debts (those backed by an asset such as real estate or a car) must be reaffirmed if you want to keep the asset.
