Time Travel: where would you go?

TiMSport · 06-02-2021, 11:10 AM

If you could either travel back in time or into the future, when and why would you do it?

infinitekidM2C · 06-02-2021, 11:42 AM

To the future!

8100 A.D.

That's interesting. Why would you choose that period?

2016. Buy bitcoins at $500 and snag me that sweet $1.5 billion powerball.

Humdizzle · 06-02-2021, 12:53 PM

do we get to come back ? If so i'd travel to next week and get all the stock picks... come back, become a multimillionaire, retire. lol

going back to biblical times to see if its made up would be interesting. i wanna see if theres a giant ark with every animal on board. or if dude really split a sea apart.

unluky · 06-02-2021, 12:53 PM

Back as far as I had to in order to club that first ape that climbed out of that tree and said
"F this - I'm going on 2".........

King Rudi · 06-02-2021, 12:55 PM

December 28th 2013. The last time my father ever called me, I ignored the call.

ASAP · 06-02-2021, 12:57 PM

Only enough to become a millionaire... actually about 10 years back... that should more than do.

Efthreeoh · 06-02-2021, 01:04 PM

Back to 1982 to buy a Delorean...

You know why.

Steeler · 06-02-2021, 01:19 PM

Late 50's to mid late 60's to experience those beautiful GT cars of Lemans.

I'd go 5 years into the future, record who won all of the major sports games and presidential elections, then come back and bet on them.

I haven't spoken to my father in years. This is really hitting me.

Make an effort. We had a terrible exchange earlier in the day and I was still miffed at him. He passed shortly after the call that I ignored.

why not go back to the 2010/2011 time when bitcoin was under $1

id head to 2011, tell my stupid self to stop being a pussy and buy as much bitcoin as i could instead of worrying its a scam. then let myself know it peaks in 2017ish, tanks beginning of 2020, and hits 60k in 2021

Because OP didn't say if we could come back and I probably wouldn't have much $$ in 2010 to buy shit with. Plus I like the stuff/tech we have now. So if I combine bitcoin with that 1.5 billion powerball I think I'll be good to go and 2016 was just the other day.

I wouldn't mind seeing the future, but I certainly wouldn't want to stay there, would probably be a broke dumb shit in the future.

Going to the past with present $$ and tech might be cool or you might get hung as a witch. Even best case scenario you become king of the fucking world... it's still a world with no AC, indoor plumbing or modern medicine... I'll pass.
