Hmm. I think disappearing would be easier.
Arrange to go away on a weekend retreat with no internet or phone access, drive to a station somewhere quite remote, take a train to an airport very far away from your home town, buy a ticket to Amsterdam, take a flight anywhere in the world from there. Take two phones, leave the one used for friends and family tucked away in the aircraft.
Obviously I've never given this a moment's thought. |

"How would one go about this?
Just getting ideas for the new year"
Full plastic surgery first so you can move about your old stomping ground undetected and best of all go to your own funeral to see who says what about you and who actually turns up |

Faking a death is near impossible nowadays but disappearing well that's much easier. Cash out everything your own house the lot, buy gold something you can resell do this long before you make the commitment, then travel to any Mena state and start crossing borders on foot, it's very easy to lose yourself in the middle East. |

I don’t have any family, don’t have much money, don’t have too many problems, Partners have come, taken everything and left me with nothing. I’m mostly dead anyway. Can’t fake being dead but good at faking being alive and happy. |

Timothy Dexter, an eccentric 18th Century businessman in the USA ( he wrote the punctuation-less book A Pickle for the Knowing Ones or Plain Truth in a Homespun Dress) is best known for having faked his own death to see how people would react.
He observed that his wife, Elizabeth (née Frothingham), didn't shed any tears at the wake (in fact, he found her in the kitchen laughing with some of the 3000 people that turned up for the wake), and as a result he caned her for not being sufficiently saddened by his 'death'. |
