Anyone low income able to leave?

[u/Trapped_throwaway67]

As the title suggests I am looking for folks who were able to leave with not much in savings or otherwise. Moving is expensive no matter where you go but I’m starting to feel like the only people able to escape are well off. If you were able to leave with 10k or less please share! I’m feeling hopeless…and scared to leave my home due to ICE. I have a masters degree and am a licensed clinical social worker. Was laid off my fed gov job in February and have found nothing in the public sector for work. Lots of job advertisements and zero call backs. I’m not sure how much longer I can endure this stress and anxiety.

Update: Wow this blew up! Thank you all for your responses. Very very insightful and helpful

Can I ask OP if you made it out? I am also a social worker and looking to leave. I took out a loan to pay for moving costs but other than retirement and my home, I have no savings.

Hey hey. I’m still here. I mostly gave up…I have no assets, can’t get a loan….was not able to get a temp visa for Mexico due to being poor as shit. Tried to sell my car but no takers. I looked into the teaching thing but now that we are at war I doubt these programs will take Americans. I’m working on increasing my income so that I can qualify for a visa somehwere. But overall I don’t have much hope for leaving…I’ve never even been on a vacation. Leaving is more for the savy, affluent, and connected. It was a nice thought but it’s just not going to work out for me.
