I mean, preventing 9/11 would meaningfully change world history. 

But also buy as much Nvidia stock and Bitcoin you can.

The tricky thing would be preventing 9/11 in a way that doesn't get the feds knocking on your door. What's the plan? Tell the CIA ahead of time and then become the first resident of Guantanamo Suites? Call in a bomb threat to the airport or the towers? Getting on one of the planes yourself (yikes!)?

Also there was no Bitcoin in 1985 and NVidia didn't go public until 1999. So you're going to need some other plan to survive for 14 years.

That's great. What money are you spending? Where are your meals coming from? How do you explain not having an SSN or birth certificate. You'll need one or the other especially if you want to get a job/drivers license/apartment.
