      OOOH Look at Mister FANCY PANTS with his dial up internet. You must be rich, Mister Fancy Pants.

      I think I had AOL at the time…

    I’d hug my mom. Then I’d go ask the pretty next door girl for a date; I lesrned later in life that she also had a crush on me at the time, but since I was plain looking and slightly overweight nerd I never thought I’d hsve any chance with her.

    After getting that out of my system I’d do the obligatory investing.

    The first question is what kind of time loop am I in? Is it a ‘We are all going to die and I need to fix it’ or a ‘I need to grow as a person to get out’ loop. If it’s the first one then I need to figure out when Donald Trump and Jeffery Epstein are both going to be one of his flights to Epstein’s island and find a way to blow up the plane. If it’s the second one I guess do the same thing as that’s got to be good karma.

      I have thought about this over the years. If I am in a loop, it’s “which PhD am I doing this lifetime?” or “so I guess I am going to be the world’s best cabinetmaker this round.”

    Since I am an absolute idiot who doesn’t know what happened back then in order to rake in money off of things like betting ( either legal or illegally ), probably just ( assuming I have 'em ) listen to CDs on my CD player and hop on computer and hope I have any good games.

    Take my routine morning shit. But instead of my phone I’m reading the label on the back of any bottle I can reach from the throne.

    I buy relevant stocks to make me rich and revel in the fact that there is no internet again. I am 68 and have been there and done that already.

      Yeah, anyone who answers with anything besides “invest in the tech companies you know will get huge, then get into bitcoin early and ride it all the way to $100k each” is going to fail to thrive.
