How to unlock the Phoenix rises achievement in Lawn Mowing Simulator - Definitive Guide
A new mower got added to the game that makes this achievement a little easier and less time consuming to complete. The mower, Patterson Ro-A, is now a 3rd option of mowers to buy when starting the game. It's as simple as starting a separate business apart from your main one so your main career isn't affected. When you start off, buy the new blue mower, the Patterson. As soon as you buy it, purchase a 5 day ad for $500. Then buy all the attachments you can for the mower you bought. It should leave you with like $200. After that, accept contracts, but end them early by getting back on the trailer with your mower. To speed it up, you can manually change the blades for $50 every time. So doing that will quickly put you in the negative. I got mine to -$25 in a few contracts leaving them early and changing the blade. Once you're even remotely negative, do a job and get back in the positive. That may sound like a lot, but it's not. It took me like 20 min after making a separate career save. So I'll lay it out in steps for you.
1.) Start a separate career save.
2.) Buy the Patterson mower as your starting mower
3.) Buy a 5 day ad for $500
4.) Buy all attachments for the mower which will leave you with about $200
5.) Start some jobs and leave them early which will get you fined.
6.) When starting jobs, walk up to your mower and manually change the blades which costs $50 a change
7.) Once you're negative in money, do a job and get positive.

I got this in less than 2min. Follow the guide just as Bobaaganoosh says. Except with the new update of EV mowers and trimmers, its even easier. Purchase the Patterson mower(leaving you with 800), purchase the new EV trimmer(leaving you with 501) and then purchase the ad for 500(leaving you with only 1). Start the first mission, grab the trimmer and cut some flowers and then leave. It was a -2 penalty leaving me at -1. Start the next mission and just do the cleanup garbage at the beginning and then leave. Super simple and takes 2-3min.

I started a job and destroyed flowers to get a fine which put me in the negative. Then I found the collectibles on another job, quit and the rewards put me in the positive again.

So the trick to this achievement is to get your bank balance to go negative and you'll see a pop up saying emergency overdraft activated. You can do this by spending all your money down to as low as possible, for me I got it down to about £1.50 and then started a job and immediately left the job incurring a fine for not doing anything.
Then all you have to do is do jobs to get out of negative and ping goes the achievement. Alternatively you may be able to take out a loan to get out of negative but I didn't test that so it may not work.

Loan doesn't work to unlock the achievement. I was thinking it would have a message say something about bankruptcy, so I took my balance all the way out the other end of the overdraft (over 5k negative). Had to get a loan and return to within the 5k to be able to start a contract, I think I might restart the save I created to go for this achievement.
Initially took the 5k loan, then when things kept getting worse I was forced to get the 15k loan, which took me out the overdraft. I'm guessing it's out the over draft and no loans?

Tip:
You cannot START a day when you are in the -xxx
The best that you can do is buy a lawn mower and reach as low as you can go in money.
Start a job and have lots of collision damage so you will end up in the -xxx after this job
You will need to get a prompt saying that the 'emergency funding' or something is activated, once this has been done, sell the lawn mower and become profitable again

This won't be too hard to cheese, thankfully, and can be doubled up with Mo mowers, mo problems . You'll need just over $186k to purchase all of the mowers for that trophy. You can take out up to 3 loans at a time and if you make them all $50k, that'll bring you up to $150k, so you'll need to come up with the remaining $36k on your own. Take out the loans necessary, then purchase all of the mowers for Mo mowers, mo problems . This should bring you down pretty close to being broke, which is where you need to be. Start a few contracts and end them early to pass the days and eventually your first loan payments will be due. If done right, these will put you under $0 and you'll get a warning that your balance is too low. When you do, sell the majority of the mowers you just bought since you don't need them anymore and you'll end up well over $0, which will bring you back from the brink and unlock this trophy.

Start a new campaign. Buy the most expensive lawn mower and the cheapest trimmer. There will be 100 pounds left.
We take the contract. We skip collecting items. The mower must be at the wrong height (so as not to make money while mowing). We drive into the area and cut the flower, get off the lawnmower, change the blade -50 pounds, cut the flower again and change the second blade, and complete the mission. After cutting the flower, you can change the blade. I cut 4 flowers (-20) and knocked once (-1), with fines and maintenance I had a -21 pound balance.
We start a new mission, collect items, don’t mow anything down and leave. with the time bonus I had +23 pounds and a trophy.

In principle, during the course of your career, you will have situations where, before the due date of the loan installments, you do not have enough money to do so. On such a day, simply exit the contract without fulfilling it. There won’t be enough money to pay the bills, they’ll open an overdraft for you for 5,000, and you’ll end up in some kind of loss. Afterwards, just earn money to cover the debt and get a trophy.
