My exact thoughts. Give me this choice at 19 or 20, sure I’ll restart. Now though, the money would just be nice to provide security to the most valuable thing - my girls.
Any point in time before my body broke down and a chance to not get through the troubles I had in my twenties? The ability to build neuronal structures like a child instead of learning anew profession in my thirties? Hell, I’m not gonna say no to that.
Exactly, if you make changes to things you wish you’d done differently, you could drastically alter your life enough to where you’d be in unknown territory rather quickly.
Sure you’d still have the “dump savings into Bitcoin, sell in September 2020” thing that would make you richer than the blue pill ever could, but the mistakes we make are the biggest reason to relive the past and once you alter those you’d quicky change the course of your life.
Do I go back in time to when I was 6, or do I remain in the current timeline, but 6 years old?
I’d imagine with all my memories and knowledge and basically being an adult, I’d probably have…desires…that vastly exceed my age. So that’d be pretty awkward.
In the current timeline would be interesting. I’d have to get a remote job that doesn’t need me on video, but assuming my paperwork still says my original birth year, I could probably keep on renewing my license for several years and at least have a valid adult ID. Even if I can’t drive or buy my own weed/booze, I could still maintain employment at least until I have an adult body. I’m assuming the sorcerer also gave me an identity that matched my new body, so I could probably coast through college at some point
But the weirdest thing would be being able to be both my kids peer and their parent.
I was 6 in 1990. I can make stock moves that are worth more than $10 million by the time I get to today pretty easily. Maybe fix a couple things that could’ve gone differently while I’m there. I’m not scared of randomness, I’ve thrived in it once already.
Six year old, easy choice - do something mildly special for a kid that age and get on TV then when they ask you a question the answer is ‘well it was a dream i had, there was a pale horse riding towards us snd the horses name was Tod, it was going to run over everyone but an angel told me to call out to the faithful and save them…’
Kid can’t even read and from an atheist family then starts quoting bible and making up complex visions and messages no child could ever create - plus very clear predictions that come perfectly true, knowledge of science before it’s discovered… Admit it, you’d get sucked into my cult.
Could have a huge portion of the world believing, teach them the need for luxury gay space communism then when we’re all living in utopia be like ‘oh btw it was just a time travel prank lol’
Back when I was 6, in 1983, my uncle who worked in the oil industry told me about global warming.
I could totally have been a real radical environmentalist, but I was 6.
A second time around that talk would have an impact, and with some foresight for the next 40 years. I think no one would be surprised if I devoted everything to fixing global warming - they might be surprised at my success in the stock market.
