(+) Yeah! (+)

What's the first thing you'd tell yourself?

*Whatever you do DO NOT create a Gamefaqs account when you discover the website*.

When they say it gets better that's a fucking lie

I'd beat his ass. Gotta learn the hard lessons you know?

Get dad to buy apple stock

Buy bitcoin as soon as they make it.

Here's a list of everything you need to do to have a better future. Do them right away. Don't procrastinate, or your future is really going to suck.

You're alright.

We've been over this before. If someone claims to be my future self, immediately try to create a paradox that destroys reality. Mutually assured destruction is the best way to convince me not to abuse my time traveling powers in that fashion.

I wouldnt tell him nuttin. Hes gonna have to go through all this shit too

Savor the rest of the 80's and the 90's because from 2000 on everything sucks.

Save money, put them in a bank account so no one stole it.

"Boy, you have ADHD, and your parents weren't raised right. It's not your fault."

buy bitcoin, amazon, google, apple, microsoft and tesla

"It gets worse."

I'll tell my 10-year-old self, "Trust your instincts and foresight my child, and never be afraid to take risks."

I'd rather be 80 year old me than 10 year old me

"Work out, be fit, and don't settle down with the first girl that gives you any attention. Life is worth living so long as you make it so. Don't waste two decades learning that, my child. You and I both know that you've dreamed of this day happening, so heed my words."

I'd tell him...goodbye.

(gunshot)

Dont worry, it gets biggersort of.

I would tell my younger self when my Dad passes away, to try to take all the time to save him.

This topic again? I'd tell myself absolutely nothing. First of all because I know what a waste of time it would be. I don't give a hoot what anybody says. Probably least of all myself.

This year will be the happiest of your life, savor it.

Don't get an English degree. Oh, it's fine to take those writing classes, have a bast. But get a good degree you can get a better job than English teacher with.

There's a webtoon that covers this, though it's not appropriate to share in most places because things going into negative mental health spaces are forbidden. I forgot the name of the webtoon.

Tell him to quit while hes ahead, because after age 13-14 its all down hill.

"Reign yourself in, control yourself"

Hmmmm. I'd probably tell him to get a hobby that he'd be able to make a career out of by his early 20s

"Start working out in your teens. You see how big we've gotten? Imagine the gains if we had started decades earlier."

Tell him he'll get rich if he finds a way to buy stocks from Google Amazon and Bitcoin

Also not to be picky with girls because he needs to start leveling up as soon as possible

Get a job, ASAP, and put da money in Microsoft, and Intel.

Do. Your. F-ing. Homework. No. Matter. What.
Also, buy Bitcoin when it's still new.

I've thought about this scenario but probably wouldn't believe myself. Imagine some old man coming up to you claiming to be you from the future and telling you to buy as much 'Industry X' stock as you can get. I'd be like this mf crazy and try to get away from him immediately.

Your life won't get better. We most likely will die alone. But hey! The bright side is in the future you will not believe how good video games get. Eventually you can play video games with people around the world on this thing called the internet. It's gonna blow your mind

(I was 10 in 1991, for a frame of reference on what little me would be aware of)

"Buy Microsoft, Apple, and Walmart stock. And when you hear about a company called Amazon, buy that too."

Do what you can to get an original ds, or gba sp. You will break the A button on a normal gba or gbc, and you wont have to deal with AA Batteries or needing a light source.

...though that should probably go for my parents.

Nothing. I'd already know if I had time travelled. By not knowing it means I had a reason to not speak with myself so I won't risk it.

Also buy microsoft/apple etc stock.

"In a few years, you're going to figure out that you're into some really weird stuff. Sorry. But hey, if it takes any of the pressure off, you're asexual anyway. So don't worry too much about dating or stuff like that. Also, here's a list of companies that you need to buy stocks in when you're older. Don't lose the list."

Buy bitcoin as soon as they make it.

Incidentally, you buying Bitcoin that early may cause it to not increase value. A large part of why it is so high is because China confiscated half of the bitcoin that was in circulation at the time which caused it to jump up in price. Then investors saw this and thought they could get rich by buying up bitcoins themselves. Essentially, it created a feedback loop where the cost of Bitcoin kept increasing, not because it was actually valuable but because it was scarce. If you remove that scarcity by purchasing it before it started rapidly increasing in price, then Bitcoin never really takes off like it did.

"Hey."

Save Prince from dying.
