    I’d just go back in time with my knowledge of the stock market and make it big. Oxen are gonna explode in value in around 2300 BC. And stay out of the goat market… it’s a trap.

      Me, I’d travel to Babylonia (passing through enemy territory) and find the copper merchant Ea-Nasir. Then I’d punch him in the nose and say “Nanni says what’s up!” Then (and this is crucial) I’d get scribes to write out the whole thing on multiple clay tablets, emphasizing my deeds and exploits, and make sure those clay tablets are distributed throughout the known world.

          Dude! Dude! Dude! Check this out… I’d go to Stonehenge. Like the real Stonehenge in England, you know? And I’d write the lyrics to Stairway to Heaven… but I’d hide it just enough so they wouldn’t find it till 2026… when the world needed it the most…
