Quite often they start up a 'sister' company and sell their assets to it at
a trivial price. It's like creating another ship and moving to it before the
first ship sinks with all debts on deck. "Nothing to do with us!" cry the
crew of the new ship.
It is true that bankrupted people cannot run another company for several
years but they just get their top arse-licker from the old company to run
the new one as a puppet.
I'm sure it is such a common practice that the only reasons politicians
don't outlaw it is because so many have benefited from it.

Not likely, I still owe the tax man, the vat man, & my accountant.
