Going Back in Time

If you could go back in time and be the physical version of what you were back then but with your current level of knowledge, what would you do when you know everything that happens X years into the future? Me: I would invest heavily and become uber rich.

Yea invest, and get paid millions by government officials to have me tell them what happens with the wars and middle east crisis. (That might not turn out too well) Tell them who the future presidents are, and push Justin Biebers mother down the stairs a couple months before she gives birth to that little ***. Also, bang Megan Fox before she becomes famous. And then invest some more in Siri XM, Apple, google and on and on.

I wonder how many you could win until they start investigating you and withholding winnings to try and figure out why you are winning so much.

I actually thought about this during my workout today for some random reason.

I'd buy oil futures and sell at the peak of $150, then roll that money into puts in Lehman Brothers and sell them off, then roll that money into calls of Goldman Sachs when it was at $80 and sell off at $160. That should net me a few billion dollars. I'd then put all of that money into very conservative investments that could easily be liquidated (Savings accts, CDs, etc etc), and spend the rest of my life trying to blow all of that money, it should be especially hard to beat the profit on interest alone, but not over paying or being a dumbass. Then on my death bed I'd set up my whole family for life, create charities with the rest, and right as I die I'd snort a whole kilo of cocaine...
