When it is available for sale, arrangements to inspect the property may be made through a real estate broker of your choice. The property may not be entered until it is offered for sale.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">Cole\u2019s attorney appealed that seizure and worked

property<\/a> to her, to Cole\u2019s relief.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">The judge noted for the record that Guardian Asset Management hadn\u2019t even

Channel 2 Action News report when Cole asked the judge<\/a> overseeing her bankruptcy case to seal her financial records, but new filings in the case show her monthly finances and expenses, as well as what properties she\u2019s planning to give up to settle debts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">Among the properties Cole is surrendering, the home she fought to get back after it was seized is on the list.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">Cole is surrendering properties in McDonough, Decatur, Loganville and Atlanta.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">On top of the properties being surrendered, Cole will also be paying homeowners association fees to two associations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">The Slutty Vegan founder will also have to pay nearly $500, collectively, in small debts to Children\u2019s Healthcare of Atlanta, Dentistry for Children, the Georgia Tollway Authority, the New York State Insurance Fund, the Riverlink Tollway Authority in Kentucky and the Atlanta-based State Road and Tollway Authority.<\/p>\n<p>What will Pinky Cole\u2019s monthly expenses be?<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">Court records show show that amidst the bankruptcy proceedings, Pinky Cole is earning a reported $6,000 each month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">But after all of the payments she\u2019ll make to creditors, and other expenses including childcare, the Slutty Vegan owner will only be taking $1,500 each month for her own use.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">While she\u2019ll earn $6,000 a month, court records show Cole will still have more than $4,200 in monthly costs, split between childcare, groceries, gasoline, medical costs, liens on homes she is surrendering and more.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">Cole will be paying $1,574 to the Georgia Department of Revenue and $1,343 to the IRS each month, according to the court records.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">That leaves her with a net income of $1,520 with a disposable income for the bankruptcy plan of $1,500 per month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-tl066j-0 gJuxXh body-paragraph\">[SIGN UP: <a href=\"https:\/\/membercenter.wsbtv.com\/newsletters\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"
