I’ve spent more than 15 years trying to get out of the US. It’s pretty much only possible if you can trace your lineage back to Europe which as a Native American who has maybe a tiny bit of Scottish I can’t. Or if you get a job in Europe. I can’t even afford a European vacation.
It’s absolutely possible but it’s not easy if you don’t have a in demand profession.
One of my closest friends left the US for Germany with about $5000, a suitcase of clothes, and absolutely no specialized work skills. He worked in hostels for room and board, and did part time work for spending money. He had to skirt immigration laws while working to get permanent residency, but got his education in IT for only minor fees each semester and became a citizen after ten years.
It can be done, but it’s much more difficult without lots of money, family, or similar advantages.
Go to Europe. My MSc cost me €1500.
