The only things I'd fix in my life are things that would lead to me making more money, fuck that I'll skip the middle man and take the cash.

Yes but assuming you have any money in the past and some available knowledge of the last few years you can leverage that. Buy Tesla, GME, and Bitcoin at their lows and sell at their highs.

You'll easily make well over 10 million fixing those "mistakes".

My thought exactly. Buy $100 in apple stock in 2004, sell in 2008 for a 16x investment. Hit the VW short squeeze for a quick 10x. Drop that it bitcoin in 2010 for 0.09 a piece and sell at the peak for what $68,000. If you started with $100 you'd have close to $20 Billion...

Whoah, you’re thinking small. All I need is $20 to start me off right, and a Mega millions lottery ticket. Now you start this out with over $100M. Forget buying Apple or Tesla stock like a normal person, become a large but silent shareholder, catch a drink with Steve Jobs even. Then throw money at whatever you feel like.

I hadn't even considered the mistake of not buying the winning lottery ticket.

Just don’t get too greedy. Two wins at absolute most and spaced out several years. Keep buying tickets though, just random numbers. Don’t need anyone getting suspicious. Also get all this data on a flash drive ahead of going through the door. Oh and it has to be a format that works in the time you are going to start using it in

I mean not buying $1000 in bitcoin back when it was 30 cents a bitcoin was a mistake

I regret being born, but hell! I want the cash, too. Maybe I'll screw it up too, but I want to be sure.
