How many years back in time would you go for 1 million dollar?

The catch is your life has to play out exactly like it did. All the drama, missfourtune, happiness, sadness tragedys etc etc. and you're not allowed to buy any stock or anything that you know will earn you more money then you had.

2years? 5 ?

WTF is the point of going back in time if everything winds up exactly the same? ??? No, not worth it...clearly not.

I'd go as far back as needed. Even though you'd have to go through some of the bad again, the anxiety of the unknown would be eliminated and it would actually be quite stress free.

using inflation as the key determinant, i would go back to 1800 or so, when that one million dollars would be worth 12 times that amount.

you dont understand my point.

Lts say you choose 2 years.

Then you go back 2 years. live you life exactly like it happened and when you reach the time you went back (2 years later) you will recieve 1 million dollar.

I hope poeple understood I meant that lol

I'll give you a million to take me back for free so I can do things in a whole different way. Nothing will be the same!

oh. tough question. live my life over again, exactly how it happened the last time? would i realize i was doing exactly the same thing i had done before, or would my memory be wiped out? that would make a big differece. in one situation your basically forced into enslavement, having to act at times in ways that you know your going to regret, you know will embarrass you, you know will cause you physical and emotional pain. so it would be very hard to live your life exacty the same if you had memory of it. but if you didnt have memory of it you would be basically throwing away the last two years of your life, and everyhting you might have learned during that time. although i guess you would learn the same things again. hmmm....     i guess if i actually had this option, i would choose one year. i could do the last year over again for a million bucks. even if it means losing my memory or forcing myself ot do things that i wont like the outcome of

you're forced to recreate everything. Ever the embarrassing parts even though you know its coming. SAme with if someone you knew died you're not allowed to stop it. Living hell for some, not so fuck for others, which makes the question interesting

If the $1m is the same no matter how far I go back in time, I'll go back one year.

if it was $1m for every year you go back, your post would make more sense. In that case, 10.

Ten minutes so I can find the keys to my Lamborghini (leased) and get to the airport to pick up Shery Miles! You'll be seeing her in some major Hollywood blockbusters next year or the following.
