I have OP magic. I can reverse time and take my money back from your future. There is no escape from OP Magic Lemmings.

You have 1 year. What do you do with this small sum of money?

    Take out a loan using it as collateral. Then it doesn’t matter if you take it back, I still have the loan. Then I guess buy a small company and gut it for resources. Rinse and repeat. Get rich. Lose my ethics. Start paying off women with offers of a horse. Lose my hair. Get my butt hair put on my head. Buy a shitty company and make it shittier. Treat my kids like garbage. Buy the president. Be the most hated man in the world. Fake my gaming stats. Die alone.

    I’d invest in a CD at a credit union. No risk of loss and at least a 3-4% rate, or I’d park it in a high interest savings account. Some are even close to 5%. Then I’d ask for the same deal again next year and every year after lol

    Am I reading this right or is everyone else in the thread reading it wrong? It seems to me what you’re saying is that you go back in time and take it away after the fact like we never had it. So all these answers about buying stocks or bonds or everything are pointless. Objectively the answer is to have as much fucking fun as you can cuz it’s going to be taken away with timey wimey stuff before it ever happened. Am I right?

    Since you will change the past and reverse the changes due to me having no intention to give the money back, i will try to create as much chaos as possible with the money

    How are you delivering it? That’s a lot of pennies.

    I’m asking the wrong question, does it have to be the same 1 million dollars you gave me? Can it be something which is valued (by you) at 1 million dollars?

    How does inflation effect this? A million dollars today might not be worth a million dollars in a year.

    If I buried a million dollars worth pennies in my backyard, well actually, I probably wouldn’t be done digging the hole after a year. Also, I don’t actually have a backyard. If I did have a yard and it already had a large pit dug, which could contain a million bucks worth of pennies, after a year would I need to haul them out for you or does your OP magic also allow for easy transportation?

    Is your OP magic for sale? Must be less than 1 million dollars or I can’t afford it.
