    I would go back to 2010 and tell myself, “buy Bitcoin, sell on Dec 17, 2017, buy after it drops and sell again on April 14, 2021. If you still need money after that, reevaluate your life”.

      I was going to say to myself “Invest in Nvidia shares”, but your sentence is much better.

        Yeah true, but his mom was austrian and they speak a funny version of german. My mother tongue.is german, so that should be possible.

    It probably wouldn’t work, but I would warn Martin Luther King’s event organizers or security detail.

    I’m old enough that I could have lived in a world where Martin Luthor King Jr was still an active activist in my lifetime. It’s heartbreaking to think about what his loss meant not just symbolically, but in terms of how much better the entire world could have been with almost an extra half century of his influence.
