A person comes up to you and says, "I can reverse time for just $1 per day." Do you take their offer? How far back do you go? (lemmy.world)

i.e. pay $5 to go back 5 days.

The time travel is permanent and one-way.

Edit: this is a one time offer and your budget is however much liquid cash you have right now. Cards are accepted, though.

For non-Americans, feel free to convert $1 USD to your currency

I'd go back to the beginning of 2019. I don't want to backtrack too far, but this would give me enough time to sell the house, move, and get situated before covid and the price of everything going crazy.

But it's not just about that, it's about repairing a relationship with a loved one while I still can.

All these people spending years living in reverse time. I don't know.

There is a lot that I don't think I'd enjoy backwards. But maybe if it's a whole perspective shift I wouldn't notice the difference. Just watching my life events with an "oh yeah, that happened too"

Maybe give the person like a dime after I break a few things just to wig out on reverse entropy, if I can.

If I murder my child self, do I just stop existing? I'd take up that offer in a second.

I have more than enough to get to 2010, which is as far back as I can go (so I don't erase my son). I have a LOT of things to do differently in that time...

As a millennial American I have about $40 to my name. I might have $100 at the end of the day. That’s 100 days further from my demise. Sooooo no deal.
