ah. Well, then I guess it would depend on if I thought you went through bankruptcy because you started a company without a corporation and it crashed, or if I thought you went through bankruptcy for personal reasons. The latter, in my mind, would pretty much disqualify you, as it suggests you are not good with money.
The former is just fine, assuming you can get me to believe you. (but convincing me of this would be difficult. Everyone with a shopping problem would like to think they were really 'investing' Financial records from the failed company would help a lot, and would provide evidence you are good with money.)
Of course, I invest in my own companies, not in other people's companies, so my opinion may not be representative.
Oh, also, especially if you are young, it will matter a lot less as you get older. We all can relate to doing irresponsible things when we were young.
The bankruptcy would largely be a result of funding a web startup years ago with credit cards after having used up savings. The expenses were food and rent and the like.
