The usual. Invest in bitcoin, not get married, become a girl 20 years earlier. Just common stuff.
Find Nigel Farage in the field after he survived his 2014 plane crash and… change that.
Possibly saving the country from Brexit even getting to referendum status, and if it did, possibly changing the result. And then maybe preventing the revolving door Tory governments that fucked up the initial Covid response, since most of what they’ve done over the last decade has been to try and swing voters away from UKIP/Reform rather then actually do things that are good fit the country as a whole.

So many dead billionaires and political figures… just like… a ludicrous amount.
What’s a billionaire?
A worthless parasite that devours and destroys the lives of working people.
I think they were making a joke from the perspective of the future the OC made.
Transition at a younger age. Would have saved me a lot of hurt in the years between
Easy, make sure I was never born.
straight to the paradox, not playing around
Hitler, is that you?
Come on, can’t ask this kind of question without giving us the rules.
Paradox free? Does the future change? Do I go as my current self or is age adjusted? Do I keep my current knowledge and memories and skills? Do I get to go back? Do I get multiple tries to get the optimal outcome?
So many variables with these kinds of hypotheticals, I can’t give you any meaningful answer without general outlines of the rules. Can’t play the game if I don’t know the rules.
Taking this way too seriously. Just take the other responses as examples.
I would use it once and promptly die in the coldness of space
I would go back in time and tell myself not to study physics and waste my life trying to invent time travel and then promptly vanish in a puff of logic.
Go back in time and buy another 1997 F-150. The thing is an amazing example of do it simple & do it right, and it will last. But, it’s also close to 30 years old, nearly every system on it is showing the tell-tale signs of age. I would love to have an actual new one, it would last me the rest of my days. (On a happy note, I just finished putting a rebuilt motor in mine. So, here’s hoping for another 25+ years).
It saddens me that even if I could afford a new car at today’s prices, I don’t want what they’re making.
Can I go forward in time, and then back? In that case, I’d get some future numbers for the Euro Jackpot and play that line.
Visit Granddad.
Play the lottery. I don’t know anything about the people who won big lotteries. Maybe it was me.
I’d go to the future and check it out. The question also made me wonder how far into the future one would need to go before they wouldn’t be able to speak the same language as anyone?
Man, I’d print so much time…
