It’s interesting that not being able to discharge the loan in bankruptcy is because “you can’t take back the knowledge.” While true, you can still make the credential mostly useless. Everyone needs to do certain verification in a new job (e.g. I-9). If a job was posted that requires some degree, and a new hire used the degree they discharged in bankruptcy to get that job, the debt can come roaring back into existence when it’s caught during onboarding. Like anything, there are edge cases (e.g. starting a new company). But even there you might be able to have gates at financing stages that would trip the debt resurrection.
Just be ready to make practical quality of life adjustments. Learn about self sustenance, even if you can't practice it yet. It's not going to be Mad Max all of a sudden, but a lot of little things we've come to expect someone else to do will degrade or disappear.
Everyone I’ve talked to about the Super Bowl ads has mentioned that one and said that it is creepy af. The backlash is mostly word of mouth in my experience.
> Even if your house technically runs on propane, and you have propane, electricity might still run the propane, so your house is going to get cold. Unless you run the woodstove. Which you will
Corollary: don’t buy a house in a place where it snows without two fully independent sources of heat. You want backups. There’s a reason why woodstoves are so popular in New England. A millivolt gas log stove on a thermostat can also be a good alternative.

Sure, maybe it takes me a little while to ride across town on my bike, but I can reliably get there and I understand every aspect of the road to my destination. The bazooka-powered jetpack might get me there in seconds, but it also might fly me across state lines, or to Antarctica, or the moon first, belching out clouds of toxic gas along the way.
