I feel like it would be impossible not to be rich in this scenario.
On top of the obvious stuff like stocks and bitcoin later on, I'd probably steal future songs from famous bands. Either I'd be a rock star, or at the least the course of musical history would be changed.

If I were somehow able to warp around time and space the use of some sort of device seems more probable and I would likely be aware of it.
The 1st warp would most likely be an accident, even if you were trying to.
I was assuming, more like an act of god/nature.

Drop out of school and spend every minute of that last year with my mom before she died. I can go back the next year and pick up where I left off.

GRTiger and Taylor Swift would be the power couple

This is all good and fine, But where is your money to invest coming from?
Find someone with money. Start making predictions to them. Soon they would see the light and start paying for that info.
Boom

What year would you be going back to, and what is your detailed plan?
Hit the gym.
Hunt more before we lost the camp.
Hug my mother more before Alzheimer's took her mind and then her body.

If you put $1000 in bitcoin in 2010 you’d have something like $20 million today.
$1000 in Google in 2006 (after the IPO) would be worth several million today.

Some of these predictions would take years to materialize.

This article is from 2015, but you get the idea.

Nope. I made enough my 9th and 10th grade years with zero real expenses that could be plenty of seed capital knowing what I know now.
shite. Popping back to 1983 for my freshman year the first investment I would make is Staar they were the only decent performer in 84. The Dow that year sucked.
Also knowing what I know about the Dow in the 80s and the huge drops and derivatives I could make bank.
And like others said sports books would hate me.

We're talking 1974. I would saved the moneyI spent on college, and gotten into the business of selling movies on VHS tapes. Would have cashed out in the mid 90's and gone to work for Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon.

Were you livin' the D&D life or heavy metal, brah?

Some would.
But others come around every year
Imagine I could find someone to take a bet the US would not win a single gold metal in the Russian Olympics.
Bet I could also get someone to make the same bet later with the Russians.
Would not expect to be a millionaire in my freshman year.
I would be a billionaire by 30, if I could avoid insider trading charges. No one would believe I was that good.

I'd probably short the stock market so I'd be rich during the Great Depression :)

We are talking mid 90s for me. I'd tell younger me to start buying Amazon stock in 1997. I'd also tell younger me to just chase strange and not bother dating until you are 25-30.
