i.e. pay $5 to go back 5 days.
The time travel is permanent and one-way.
Edit: this is a one time offer and your budget is however much liquid cash you have right now. Cards are accepted, though.
For non-Americans, feel free to convert $1 USD to your currency
Easy question. I’ll just go back to 2010 and invest all my money in bitcoin, I won’t have to work a day in my life.
You would erase 13 years of your life for money?
Honestly it would suck but I wouldn’t mind reliving the last 13 years while being rich.

Who wouldn’t? That’s thirteen years you could spend living a lot better, spending more time with friends and loved ones, fixing regrets, and actually living life without spending half of your waking hours on the job.
I’d probably go further back than that, to be honest.
I would not wish my children out of existence just for the chance to make different ones.
Same. No matter how annoying they can be sometimes, I wouldn’t give my specific kids up for any amount of money.
You’re not erasing 13 years you’re just living the 2010s a second time instead of living 2070 to 2083
You’re losing the chance to witness 13 years of human history but you get your 9 to 5pm back from 2010 to 2070 which is insanely more valuable than whatever events they’ll come up with when you’re 80
but the re-emergence of you at that point in time disrupts everything and events don’t play out as they did the ‘first’ time. you lose everything and are now stuck re-living the last 13 years with a head full of useless fiction that gets mixed up with the ‘new’ reality. eventually you get involuntarily committed and spend the rest of your days in a white padded room.
I’d watch this movie.
That’s actually an interesting point. You affecting the system will change the situation and therefore might have effects on the outcome. Might be minor like the value of bitcoin only varying by a small amount but it could also somehow cause Bitcoin to crash and never recover.
Same with the idea of investing all your money into a company like Apple. This could affect the development and decision process of the company and therefore cause them to fail.
So there is no guarantee for your actions to turn out successful.
Depends on the effects, one time theory I saw recently held that altering time was like a ripple or earthquake. The further you get away from the change the less effect you have.
So just going back in time wouldn’t stop 9/11.
Between crypto and stocks (and I guess lottery and other negative EV betting stuff), all those time travel questions get ruined.
what other reasons are for going back in time? Relationship? That doesn’t depend on one critical point. Same with personal development.
Spending more time with people who are no longer with us would probably be another one.
And risk not spending enough time in other places that lead my life in my current state. People in my past (deceased or not) are very important but so are the ones in my present. I can’t sacrifice one for the other.
Those other reasons are what would make those questions interesting. I have many regrets, some going back to my childhood. But I’d neither like to be 20 again, nor risk somehow not meeting my wife.
i would very much like the opportunity to somehow not meet my ex
You wouldn’t have to go back that far to make $$$$. Just go back a week and buy the right stock options.
