I don’t really want to miss my family for that long. Maybe I’d go back to when my kids were babies and become a live-in nannydad? I could see that getting weird though.

If I didn’t have that level of control but I absolutely had to go somewhen, I guess I’d either go a few decades in the future to see how it shapes up, or to the neolithic era so I could finally find out a bunch of things we’d never otherwise have known. That era seems like it was pretty cool, and I happen to know enough baseline science to actually recreate some of my favourite amenities.

And the smart move would be to spread it around anyways, no telling what a sizeable investment in - for instance - Apple might have had early on, maybe it would change history so that it didn’t turn out successful

Better to do some bitcoin, some of each major stock you can recall, and funds for industries you know will take off

1 hour into the future so I can eat lunch early and avoid the dangers of going to some new reality I don’t have the skills or resources to deal with.
