All these billionaires would outcompete me from the start. I don’t have the acumen or desire to live to work like these do so it’s just be stocks and shares.

Murder Jeff Bezos. That should give you a head start — nothing violent, though — I’m talking “he slipped on a well-placed banana.”
1960 you’d either want to start an oil company to take advantage of the growing auto industry/car dependency, or you’d want to get an early start on a computer company, sell to NASA during the space race and use that publicity to advertise home computers.
In 1994, I think I’d start a business similar to shipt. That way you can sell stuff directly to peoples doors without having to invest in inventory or warehouse space.
If you just make some bs company called Amazon then Amazon would have to use a different name and you just beat Amazon. Amazon now goes by the name Silk Road and you get to lol everytime you see it.
Build a search engine. Call it something like Zoogle. Once our ad business gets rolling, start logistics service for delivering anything over the internet purchased via our ad platform. Then start a cloud base web services operation.
The 1960s would be easy because you could invest in all the right companies but the 90s hoping to out do amazon? Goodluck..they dont let people like us in. You better learn coding with that money n buy a lawyer and a server. Thats your best bet
Warn people about the cuban missle crissis and every major event for the next 40 odd years until it culminated in a big doomsday cult bash on y2k and run with the money
Invest in Bezos
I'd probably try to work from the inside, slowly use that 50k to hire people I need assistance from or tech to stay covert. Attempt to make it a better workplace for all. Find reasons to implement employee positive decisions. Let it be huge but let it be for the people truly.
They might even become richer technically but it's okay because we're using it to clean oceans ("as a ruse" to investigate the oceans).
Play both sides. I'll wind up helping bezos and other baddies do some fxked shit sure, but it'll also benefit the world.
Master manipulator.
I work my way into office and pass legislation that makes it illegal to operate at a loss for the purpose of putting existing small businesses out of business so that you can then gobble up their market share and increase prices.
Bezos has the vision of what it should be and the path to getting there is kinda clear.
If you’re stumbling in the dark and you know a date and dollar amount you’ll feel like failing even when you’re not.
The main key is don’t give up the equity for money and lose control of the wheel
You wouldn't outcompete them because...
"Jacklyn Bezos (née Gise, formerly Jorgensen; born December 29, 1946) is an American billionaire and philanthropist who provided the initial investment to launch Amazon.com"
Do you really think that old cruddy photo of Norwood stage 4 Bezos and a ugly little lemonade stand Amazon banner that gets posted is actually some authentic bootstrap story?
LMFAO.
Compete? The dafaq? You mean invest?
I'd buy Amazon shares
With that type of knowledge and money, why would I want a job? Why would I want a company? Its all just liability
Domain names were free until 1995. I would register as many as possible.
I'm sure it would be the copyright & patent office depository
Who manage proprietary product & design blueprints/paperwork/documents as well as musician/entertainment work catalogs.
Maybe different departments but all library of Congress...
Similar to when I found out about SESAC VS BMI/ ASCAP...
