Which is why the correct answer is to buy a shite load of tulip bulbs in the early 1630s. No technical expertise needed, you could cheaply acquire a stockpile over several years, and if you sell out in early February 1937, you walk away like a king.



Edit: crap, someone beat me to it

Simple, I travel back in time to 2016 in Las Vegas in the middle of the second half of A&M/UNI. At the point in which UNI is up 69-57 I put $50 down on A&M to win and get paid $4 billion.

This is a one time opportunity, correct?

I go back to October 4, 1982 and get the onion rings instead of the fries.

but who will pay you for that, they think you were crazy and throw all your stuff away as soon as you die. Nostradamus was physician and translator.

I dont care about being paid in 1600s wages. I know about the Goldstrike gold mine in Eureka County, Nevada. It is located on the Carlin Trend, a prolific gold mining district. It is owned and operated by Barrick Gold. Since Barrick acquired Goldstrike in 1986, until 2018 it produced 44.4 million ounces of gold.


So,..there's that.

Yeah, but this baw is thinking he's going to go back and invent iPhones, bluetooth, and Alexa. As soon as the walls start talking and he sends his first text, the stones and pitchforks will come out.
