The best-case scenario is that she just got angry or upset, and decided to take off on her own; but unfortunately considering this possibility could be taken as a slur against the victim. In other words, people might think less of her if she deliberately caused so much pain to her parents by voluntarily disappearing.
Therefore, we need to put the incident in context. We cannot assume that only a person who hated their parents would run away. At only 20, she could have been very upset by something, so upset that disappearing for a little while might seem the sensible thing to do.
If she hated her "friends" or college, she may have had good reason.
(The town seems to be less important in this case).
What about the money?
Maybe she joined some group, not necessarily a religious cult, but maybe some group that might encourage her to leave her college and join their community instead? Again, we are considering the case of a very young person, who may be idealistic.
It just doesn't fit her personality or anything we know about her. What you are suggesting is more akin to commiting suicide... sure a Well-off East Coast Jewish Fashion Design Student with a comfortable group of male friends and a bf, decides to abandon her shoes and phone while partying and then later just toss away her purse and keys... she could care less because she's about to take off at 4:30 am to join a group of Amish strolling down N. College with their horse and buggy that evades cameras on the way to their secret hideway farm.
