    I was talking to a lady that had somehow gotten into $500,000 of student loans for herself, her ex husband, and their son. And the payments are about to resume.

          And move where? No one wants us unless we’re super successful. And if we were we’d pay off our loans. Don’t think the sovereign citizen shit works.

            Non-US expat living in Asia here. It’s crazy how easy it seems for US citizens / westeners to get jobs overseas compared to people from developing nations. I can tell you, if you have a teaching license and developed country’s passport there are international schools all over the world willing to pay you well plus living and travel expenses.

              Calm down buddy, nobody called you a sovereign citizen. The comment above yours is just saying that trying to renounce citizenship but not being able to emigrate (since nobody else wants us) would leave only the option of sovereign citizenship, which obviously doesn’t really work or solve anything.

              Stop looking for something to feel offended about and read properly.

              It was a joke. And it’s wasn’t directed at you. I hope things are well. I’m not a vegan but I appreciate vegans wholeheartedly.
