If you could live anywhere, at any point in time, when and where would you pick?

You have no knowledge going in, you’re just born into that place at that time. This isn’t like a wormhole scenario. You’re not Martin Laurence in Black Knight. You’re born there, then.

    I’d love to live in the future, maybe 200 years from now, just to see how far technology, medicine, and society have evolved. It would be amazing to witness things we can only dream about today.

    Baby Boomer in the Sun Belt. Could not time the economic cycle any better.

    Far enough into the future that we have perfected intergalactic space travel. Think about it, not only would you get to explore the universe, but you’d be a relic of the past. You’d have all kinds of attention from people who want to hear about the past from a first hand perspective rather than reading it from their memory implants from their Apple iBrain. Plus imagine the curiosity of the future women wondering what men were like in the past. And if you’re lucky, you may even get to bang a hot alien chick.

    I wouldn’t change anything about when or where I was born. I was born mid 90s in South Africa and my life is pretty good.

    Whenever post-scarcity happens and we start to re wild earth and reconnect with nature.

    Am I born just the same as I yam now, or do I get to be born without any disabilities. If the latter, then I’m picking 1283 so I can have my cabin in the woods.

    A Baby Boomer or Gen Jones in either Midwest/PNW/Rockies, West Germany, or Italy north of Rome. Or Iran in the post-WWII/pre-Islamic Revolution era.
