2 days. I'll memorize the Powerball winning numbers to win something like $500M, since I know there were no other winners.
And then spend the $500M to go back 500.000.000 days
That's how they get you.
Time travel is a one time offer
I'm sure the time travelling service provider could make an exception for 500.000.000 USD.
Nah nah, their rules are explicit and their pockets are full. They can, after all, also time travel.
Will they remember I was here before if I've looped back around?
Hmmmm, that's a good question. If they're wearing a tin foil hat they may be immune to your time anomaly shenanigans so I would be careful about that.
Also, maybe don't tell them you just won the Powerball.
Yea that's true
With the travel being so cheap, unless their profit margins are really small, they could probably toss me back to Pangea for the cost of a lime
Don't want them to catch on to any shenanigans. I'll just abuse my wealth like a regular billionaire
Seems to work out for them so I don't see why not!
Also then you can eat the rich 5 days ago.
That's pretty smart. Even jumping to the one before the billion dollar win isn't that far back, and even if time changes the chance of splitting the winnings is low.
Surely they'll butterfly effect into different numbers after you buy the ticket?
