On the investment note- I'd have a message somehow sent to me one week after I go back that reveals I have a fortune in gold and other various successful investments... that way future me finds it and my investments don't cause a ripple effect.

I don't get why everyone is talking about preventing WWII if they could travel through time... bear with me here, but there was some good that came out of it, we had vast innovations emerge (atomic age begun, advancements in transportation and weaponry), it pulled us out of the depression, and most importantly (IMHO) it taught us some very valuable lessons, such as how isolationism doesn't work, never utilize appeasement to avoid conflict, and weather will always mess with your airborne operations. Okay that last one was a paratrooper joke.
