I'd invest money in Apple when it's share prices were only $4 a piece.
Hahaha...well, you beat me to that punch. I was just thinking I would buy up stocks like Apple, etc., and hold on to them. Also buy up collectable items that we now know are valuable. It would be like Back To the Future where Biff finds the sports statistic book, goes into the past and makes a fortune betting on games he knows will be winners.

I'd also do something to defeat my insecurities and give me more self confidence so I didn't have to wait till I was a nudist to find peace in myself!

Having given this a great deal of thought, even trying the "just for fun" approach.....
It's caused me to reflect a bit, and the final answer is not a single thing !
For all the dust and the mud, the joy and the pain, the loss and the gain, I wouldn't be today who I am today,
nor have what I have, if the past as it is were changed in any way, so nothing at all.
Life is the journey, not a destination.
( probably the same reason young bikers pick a destination, but as an old biker, we pick a direction )

1968 I left Vietnam, 1973 (Jan 8th) I stopped a 3-pack-a-day cigarette habit cold turkey...both very good years for vastly different reasons!
Jan 8th 1973?? Not bad, that was the day of my 18th birthday and something very special happened to me too later that day (wink wink!!!)
But I'd like to stay in a 5 year time loop...from 1988 till 1993..felt like nothing bad could or would happen to me then.....

!968 wasn't bad, but 1973 was my favorite year.
Year of the worst oil crisis.
I lived across the street from a fine restaurant. My favorite bar was a few doors from the restaurant.
There were many waitresses and barmaids wandering loose in the parking lot. I didn't need much oil.

You just leave the 60's and 70's alone. I enjoyed both decades.

I agree with another poster, even using the just for fun approach, looking back, I've no regrets and nothing I'd change. Yes, there were many bad things that were hard, but hopefully I've grown from them. And, like the other poster commented, I wouldn't be who I am today. If I were to go back on my timeline, I would request a Doctor so that I don't screw things up too badly, but I don't think I'd want to change anything in my personal timeline.
