It might be easier to become financially independent to take as much college loans as possible, and go to a cheap university, can be even abroad. But don't go to college, do a shitty job in the meantime and invest your borrowed money smartly and in such a way that's not easy for the government to track. After 4 to 5 years you can settle anywhere in the world and be free. And probably, 15 years later, you debt is defaulted.
