You wake up in 1995 (no Internet, no mobiles)

[Bostonjohn]

Oh, I've had time to think about it. I think. Wait. Am I waking up in 95, knowing what I know now? That might change things if not. I'm confused.

 

[Sgt.Stupid]

Bang my friend’s hot mom

 

[Gone crazy back soon]

A nice plate of Totinos pizza rolls and a good hour or so playing Paperboy on Gameboy followed by disappearing for the rest of the day on the old bicycle. Those were the days before the urban sprawl took away all the fun places and turned them into Karen dens.

Buy all the APPLE stock that I could. $5000 invested in January 1995 would be worth nearly $3 million today.

NVIDIA IPO price (split adjusted) was $0.40 per share in 99.

$5000 ÷ $0.40 = 12,500 shares purchased at IPO

Those 12,500 shares × 480 = 6,000,000 shares (after all splits).

First split: 12,500 x 2 = 25,000
Second split: 25,000 x 2 = 50,000
Third split: 50,000 x 2 = 100,000
Fourth split: 100,000 x 1.5 = 150,000
Fifth split: 150,000 x 4 = 600,000
Sixth split: 600,000 x 10 = 6,000,000 shares

Nvidia share price today (approximate July 2025 price) = $130 USD post recent split. 25 billion SOI (shares on issue)

Value today:
6,000,000 x $130 = $780,000,000 USD
(yes, ~$780 million).

Tell the world that South Africa made a huge fucking mistake putting the ANC with Nelson Mandela in charge.

What's the first thing you do?

1. Wow, I am just in time to change the outcome of everything that's about to go wrong in my life, FUCK YES!

But can you build a time machine?

Good question
At that time I was still in elementary school and I was thinking about what I should do next, what I should study or work for
But since I think in 1995 there was already extremely slow, crackly modem internet, if I remember correctly, I would go to study a profession after I finished elementary school, then I would go to the military for a few years and then I would go abroad permanently
Unfortunately, at that time, job hunting didn't work like it does today, nowadays it's extremely easy to get abroad to work
Back then, even if you spoke a foreign language and had a profession, you still needed foreign connections to find a job in a given country, nowadays agencies do this for a certain amount or commission, so nowadays it's easy to find a job abroad, but in the meantime I've grown old and possibly died at the bottom of that shitty country from which I always wanted to get out permanently

in 95, there were mobiles but no towers so they didn't work...
there was also internet but only serious nerds (and gamers playing Diablo) had it and logins expired after 24 hours and then you got kicked off...

No we still had the towers, that was 2001, and I still want answers about building, oh, yeah, phones..

If I crash-landed in 1995, (I was born in 2003) I would be watching Evangelion and using AOL!! LOL

 

[Super Kirbo]

What's the first thing you do?

1. Call my father a cunt, I was too young and scared back then.

2. Call all my grandparents

3. Pack my BMX in and put it in storage (which my mother threw away in 1996)

Turn on my super nintendo and read about the n64 coming out a year later. true 3d graphics will it ever get better then this poor myself a glass of sunny d some turkey twizzlers and some timtams for after and ponder how i could make this day last forever ........

 

[TwiztidBitch]

I’d be about four years old again and need to do all this shit over? If I knew everything I do now it’s about to a wild fucking ride.

 

[Mullet_Head87]

Wake up, turn on our tube TV, and watch MTV. I hear a knock from my friends wanting to play OUTSIDE. We play roller hockey, manhunt, chop a trail through the woods behind our neighborhood. Ride around on our bikes or Gopeds

 

[Sauerkraut]

Graduated college in 95 and worked as a prison guard, so would get up and begin my 5 am shift.

Leave yourself a note to stack Apple stock until 2009 and then cash it in and stack Bitcoin 😎

 

[kairoy66]

Algeria was a civil war zone, so probably I would be sold, gangraped and beheaded/stoned because I didn't cover my face/hair or whatever the hell those shitheads believe in.
So no I prefer stay in my dad's sacks.

Shut up kehba
