Starting Over


Posts: 45

Question for any and all but the US folk will be of most assistance, if you had to start over tomorrow from scratch and live off the grid, what would you do?

You have about $3-5K to help out but that's it. Need to leave the area you are at and start all over. What do you do?

Do you have the ability to get a passport still?

No. Going to try and stay in the US if possible. Still, no passport.

If you don't mind snow, you could go up north. Iron Mountain Michican, for example, has a pretty low population, and as a result, land, and resources are pretty cheap, and jobs are in demand due to logging and mining industry.

If you're thinking South, than Daytona Beach, Florida isn't a bad place. It's beautiful, jobs are a bit more difficult to find, but you can easily find a place to stay for cheap, and if you could always attend the local community college with government grants or even student loans if you don't care about debt.

Those are the only two places I can think of, but I'm sure there are plenty!

Iron Mountain? Checking it out now. Now, utiliaing any established identity is no good. Old social security number is not an option. Ideas?

What did you do?

I don't know much about SSN's. I read somewhere that you can steal the SSN of someone who's dead, and would be roughly in the same age range as you. I guess you would have to google it!

I'm sure if you know the right people, you could get this taken care of.

Gosh, you must have done something really bad!

Really depends on where you are sitting I think. Nothing too crazy stupid bad. I really don't like jail, would rather not go, and all this is hypothetical of course.

Hide in plain sight. Heading into less densely populated areas allows for closer scrutiny by others.

Change your habits. ALL of them, and decease contact with known associates.

it will take ONE and only one weak link to ruin plans.

Change your name. Something simple and common. 

Use funds to secure an abode and identfication.

If you have a car, service it and put a NEW battery in it. If it is a conspicuos car, seel and get a mundane reliable one. 

Again, CHANGE your habits, ALL of them.

"Use funds to secure an abode and identfication."

I might be fortunate enough to put together $8K. Shelter with basics is an obvious first. Do you have any suggestions how to go about the ID thing or how much something like that would cost?

I would check out Silk Road and/or the carding forums.  Hypothetically of course.
