Obviously, going back in time and buying up 500 shares and then returning to the present day would yield an impressive investment! While the plan itself is boring, you can't deny the results.
I must hand it to the person behind this ingenious idea: Time-traveling back to the late 1800s and buying an original painting directly from Vincent Van Gogh himself! “I like this idea because you'll get a painting that'll be worth millions, and you'll get to make Van Gogh happy at the same time,” explains one man. “It's a win-win situation.”
Everybody has an opinion on Bitcoin. It doesn't matter if you believe it to be a scam or the future of the financial world; most people would love to go back in time and get in on the ground floor.
