I'd look at the stock market. Check the prices and invest accordingly.

Aside from acting on financial hindsight,
-attend every single Lakers game to savor the great Kobe Bryant's ride into the sunset
-take better care of my boyhood car. I could've easily gotten another 100k+ out of that monster with a little more maintenance
-pay the 90€ to take a singing gondola ride when I visited Venice in 2011. I talked myself into thinking it was an overpriced tourist trap
-tell a couple of people that they meant the world to me before they died
-use bot farms to promulgate the perception that social media use is strictly an activity for people of low status _________________ "All wars are civil wars, because all men are brothers."

Haha, yes. For kikanga, in Part II, Marty and Doc go to the future (in 2015) and Marty buys a Sports Almanac which has all the scores of every major sporting event from 1950 to 2000. The elderly 2015 Biff gets possession of the Almanac and steals the time machine to go back in time to 1955, and he gives the Almanac to his younger self and tells him to bet on all the games because he can't lose. So Biff does, and we see that the corrupt Biff has gotten rich and changed the reality of the 1985 that Doc and Marty return to.
In the film, the long-suffering Chicago Cubs won the World Series in 2015; of course, in real life, they did win it a year later, in 2016. |

Tell my college roommate and my older cousin to get their hearts checked out for aneurysms ASAP. Then buy Tesla, Netflix, Nvidia, Lulu Lemon, and a handful of bitcoins that I would buy more of each year to try to keep myself from possibly destroying the bitcoin market from buying too many myself too early. |

One thing about a lot of money making ideas is that if it requires identification. That could be a problem. Considering your ID is from the future and isn’t valid in the past. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better” |

Hopefully you walked into the time travel room with your social security card and birth certificate. And you look similar to the way you did 10 years prior. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better” |

That assumes I don't have my old DL. My passport would actually be valid again! Saves me a trip to the library to reup it.
First thing I would do is get 2 loved ones in to see oncologists. |

Another worry is losing the relationships you’ve made in the past. Are you going to steal your family, friends, and significant others from your past self? Some might think you’re crazy if you try to explain you’re from the future. And in terms of lovers. I doubt they’ll leave past you for you. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better” |

How so? You're simply getting the ID's that are yours, whether it's 2020 or 2010. _________________ You thought God was an architect, now you know

I was 1/2 joking when I said that. But say you’ve moved in the past 10 years so you don’t have a house key.. You might have to break in to your old place. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better” |

I'd be scared to make physical contact with my "other" self, because if I learned anything from Ron Silver in Timecop, it's that the same matter cannot occupy the same space. Duh. |
