sorry i don’t see how it’s really freeing to run from obligation, seems he’s just self deluded and at some point he will be facin git in some capacity.
A fast web search says a one way plane ticket to India is more than a thousand dollars, more than 3 months of payments and 5%+ of his loan balance.
If he couldn’t pay the payments, how did he pay for a plane ticket? Or did he ditch that debt, too?
What will he do the next time he accumulates debt? Can only flee from responsibility for so long.
