Everything is the same, but the only difference being you don’t exist.

One day, you just randonly go poof, gone from this world, into the parallel universe. You arrive at the same location (relative to Earth), same time, different world.

  1. How do you even deal with not having legal documents. I mean, you are legally a ghost.
  2. And… Money… how would you acquire some?

    I still have knowledge about the various buildings in the area, keycodes to get in, loose fire escapes, ceiling areas, hvac rooms, etc - so that will give me a leg up over your average homeless person.

    Once I have a stable place to squat, I’d use my IT skills to find an entry level IT engineer way over their head and offer to do their work for them, if they give me half their salary.

    Once I have money coming in, I can either keep squatting, or rent a place in the middle of nowhere, or give the IT kid a bit more of the share if I can crash at his place.

    Slowly as I build wealth, I’d look into the darkweb for places where I can secure a passport and identity, for a steep price.

    Once that’s acquired, I tell IT kid nothing and simply vanish one day. Poof, I’m out there in the wild.

    I’d probably try to strike up some kind of congenial relationship with my parallel-world family, especially since they’d likely be less well off without an extra kid acting as a buffer from themselves. You know, help with the groceries, offer to childmind, watch their cat, that kind of thing.
