    Do a few cartwheels with my 28 year old body (which I miss), then pack up and move to Europe permanently.

    If i go back to teenage age of 14/15. I wouldn’t be such a wimp and actually admit to liking my crush back then because she liked me but I for some reason couldn’t admit to liking her

    Reconsider the medical field, opting for a skilled trade instead. Start collecting milsurp firearms. Move far away from my brother before he turns things ugly and start a new life much sooner. Warn my mom to get screened for ovarian cancer so she could actually try to enjoy retirement. Try to steer my sister away from the lazy slob she married just to spite our parents. And enjoy being single, it’s not so bad and comes with far less heartache.

    I would be about to buy some dollars and save them.
    In our country you are rich, if you can have dollars now.

    My actions depend on whether I’m taking my experiences and knowledge back with me, or does everything reset? Does my whole entity materialise out of time in that year and there’s now two of me abroad in the world? Those variables would drastically alter my actions.

    This thread makes me sad. I was bartending back in ’08. One of my regular customers was in his late twenties and he retired, off of the money he had made from trading. The guy was a multi-millionaire several times over. One day, maybe 2009-2010, he’s sitting at the bar and tells me that I should buy Bitcoin. He talked it up. I don’t know what the numbers were, but he basically told me that I didn’t have to invest much and I would end up being a multi-millionaire. Sounded too good to be true. He and I had this conversation several times. Why in FLYING FUCK I didn’t listen to the multi-millionaire telling me how to make a fuckload of easy money, is beyond me.

    He was trying to get me to buy $500 worth. A quick Chat GPT search has $500 invested in Bitcoin in 2010 valued at $406m now.

    Work harder to get dad to stop smoking so he’ll live longer, invest and work harder towards my relationship* from that time.

    *Her dad all but had me line up to get hired in the trade work he does. I’d be making twice I make now but I let it fall through.

    Well first I’d freak the fuck out because I time traveled. That would be some pretty heavy shit.

    Then I’d spend awhile mourning my children who would now never exist. Not sure I’d get over that one really.

    Then I’d probably spend the rest of my life trying to figure out how to get back to my real timeline.
