Besides the obvious answer of making money, or rather, how would you do it as an 8 year old? What else would you do?

    Your kids wouldn’t exist if any tiny change was made to the timeline at all. You having the memories of an older self at age 8 would certainly be enough to do it. Fortunately, it’s just hypothetical.

      Possibly. I do have enough information that I could easily find my ex, even if I didn’t take the same path between age 8 and the day I met her.

      For example if I studied harder and got into a better college, I still know which one she went to, and where she would hang out. I guess the biggest possible flaw of trying to recreate them would be which sperm hit which egg and how much of a difference that might make.

      Actually, I’ve already raised three kids, maybe I’ll just spring for a vasectomy at 18.
