Ever think about quitting your job, cashing in or your retirement, hopping on an airplane

I've thought about it, but today's world of keeping records of everything makes that kinda hard. Even if I could escape and start new, all it would take is someone looking up info in a database and find out where I came from, and where I went. And good luck starting a new identity without a million forms of ID and court papers, or living off the grid entirely.
