Y'all are working too hard.

You'd bring back as much money as you could and you'd invest in Microsoft, Apple, Berkshire Hathaway, Google, Yahoo, Amazon, and a few others. You could also do sports betting, but you'd have to pick major underdogs for the payoff to be large enough.

You don't need patents. Then you'd have to run a business of leasing the patents and that's work. The goal is to go back and never have to actually work. Why take back something that will require you to work.

M1A1 Abrams Main Battle Tank with full armament and a crew. Go back to basically any time you want to and totally wreck shop.You would be worshiped as a god.

No you wouldn't. Even pickem games would double your money.

Let's say you start with $100 and pick one game with even odds everyday. You'd have over $1M in a couple weeks. None of those investments are going to give you those kind of returns.

I would take several cases of AR15s and ammo to the Confederates.

If I was going back to ancient times I'd probably take an AR-15 with lots of ammo and mags. You'd be a God.

Well you wouldn't be betting on shite moneylines if you know the final score of each game. You could parlay 10 games and make millions in one bet
