You wake up and it's 1990. Youre still your age and you have a bag with 5k in cash with you. What do you do?

      the stockmarket is not a casino, you cannot simply put $200 million on a car dealership company in 1993 and expect it to pay out the same way without altering the timeline

        Yeah having $28 billion in 1995 would put you on the short list of wealthiest people. Even at 2 billion there would be people watching you like a hawk.

        That being said if it is 1990 then they either have the identifying credentials of someone younger or they do not have them at all. This would make investment impossible. It’s1990 so many of the standard banking practices are in play.

      You wouldn’t know this though unless you are a stock autist in which case, cool

      Edit: I am not so I would put it all into apple at 31 cents a share. Would be worth something like 700 mil now with all the stock splits. The Forrest Gump strategy

      How are you going to invest? You cannot set up a bank account with someone else’s social security info. In 1990 I would be 15 not 50 so all of my info is worthless.

          Good move. You can easily get that in 1990 for small amounts

          You have $5000. That is not enough to establish a fake identity that will work to get you an investment account.

          Im assuming OP wasn’t alive in 1990 because that amount is absurdly small.

              You have $5k. You aren’t demonstrating great social skills here so how are you convincing someone not to just steal your $5k? How are you going to convince them to give you anything when they have made all of the money on paper?

              How do they give you money when you cannot create a bank account?

              This isn’t nit picking. You are saying “im going to do x” and Im asking how because I was alive at the time and know how these things work IRL.

            I’m flattered that you think I’m so young. I’m middle aged.
