What year would you go back to?...and would you change anything??

starwarsnosebleed

Just curious, having just found an old flux capacitor in the loft, and a few litres of plutonium. Havent got a Delorean, but im sure my old Beemer will get up to 88 mph.

I think i would go back to the early sixties, maybe 1962, and live my entire life from then on. I would definitley try to persuade the Beatles to rethink the monstrosity that is Sgt.Peppers.

In general, the hair was better, the clothes were better, the music was better.
I will obvioulsy just have to avoid bumping into myself, and avoid my Mum trying to get off with me at the 'enchantment under the sea' dance.

Are you kidding me,in 1982 Action Man training tower was the price of one of these from Ebay.

Damnit, I've just usurped my anti globalist argument.

Ravenous

Whichever year Piers Morgan was born, and strangle him at birth.

I would print off all UK horse racing results for the last week and go back 1 week and starting with £1000 bet on all races, that should net around £1M profit from 144 races.

Would probably struggle to get the large bets places though towards the end of the week but would make a handsome profit regardless.

I'd go back to Wednesday morning, and put everything I had on Arsenal getting beat 5-1 by Bayern.

I'm betting I don't spot anything magical at all over the following couple of years.

2008. To tell myself, "no, don't you dare study chemistry - take a year, do some work and see some of the world and you'll figure things out".

1984 - kill the bastard who stole my girlfriend before he met her - and get married to her ASAP....

why wouldn't you just get the lottery numbers instead? :-)

1983 and tell myself...

Don't sleep around with the seemingly fun, hedonistic  girls , there are plenty of decent women you can have proper meaningful relationships with, outside of the sleazy little crowd you spend most of your time with.

Don't buy Motorbikes get yourself a nice little car instead.

Keep the recreational substances to a minimum.

Have some self belief, work harder and you'll be able to achieve a lot more, then you can retire early and you'll have more disposable income to spend on all of the above.

I'm pretty sure the seventeen year old me would laugh and tell the fifty year old me to fuck off though.

You would seriously try to 'pap' The baby Jesus?

I would go back to 1985 and tell myself to practice the guitar now whilst I have all the time in the world.Or back to 2004 and tell myself that I will regret taking that new job in the long run!

2001, I turned down a job because I didn't think I had the ability to do it (the job I have now as it happens).

I'd go back to 1997 and invent Google.
