Once you accept the money. You will be suddenly surrounded by dark purplish engery. And the numbers *1950* will appear over your head in yellowish numbers. Also your 50 million in cash will already be sent back in time to your new designated location. In the 1950s Las Vegas. After you land there you can do whatever you want with your new found wealth. However there will be nothing you can do to send you back into this present time. A magical spell will be on you to enforce that. Your mind and whatever knowledge you have will still be with you. And you won't be allowed to take anything else with you at all. You will be completely naked when you teleport. Actually you know what. I'll be generous with this one. You can leave up to 20 million behind. Just to help out your family. If you choose to. So would you do it?

That's tough. With that much money in the 50s you're essentially a king. But on the other hand I'm very accustomed to modern conviences.

Yeah, fuck it. I'd do it. That'd be wild

Imagine amassing a video game collection dating all the way back to the beginning.
Cathode Ray Tube Amusement Device
Tennis for Two
Spacewar!

That's plenty of money to insert some videogame history.

Important point.

But sure, if I could take my family. I'd be a rich white dude living during a time when it'd be very good to be a rich white dude. Once we got used to not being online, and with the knowledge that we wouldn't have to worry about getting nuked for at least seventy years, it'd be pretty damn nice.

If not, then pass. Not leaving my family.

I don't think I would give up modern tech to live like a king with 3000 concubines.

What did people do for entertainment? Hunt lions and rhinos? Or make slaves kill each other?

No thanks.

What the fuck would I even use 50 million on in the 1950s?

I'd be rich and bored shitless.
