...and come back 50 years from now so you could experience a core i39 and iphone 30S/gs 54, would you do it?
 
I'd do it in hopes that you and that thing you keep feeling the need to expose in your avatar are dead by then.
 
I think those things won't exist anymore but yeah, it'd be cool to see what the next big things are.
 
No, I would miss my family growing up and getting old. That's a huge chunk of your life for seeing someting you will most likely see anyway. Besides, by then cell phones will be inplanted in our brains. LOL
 
Hmmm,

It might work, put all your money in stock and then when you wake up after 50 years you might be rich!

Reminds me of the movie Blast from the Past. They were in the bomb shelter for like 30 years and they came out and of course their stock was worth a fortune and they had all these baseball cards and comics that became collectibles.
 
Only 50 years? What's the point? I'll see that in my lifetime anyway (maybe). Now, if it was, say, 1,000 years... well, I'd consider it. I've always wanted an alcoholic robot sidekick.
 
500 or nothing, maybe 1000.

I want to be asleep long enough for religious people and big government liberals to die off.
 
I would so I can look for anything revolutionary that comes out, and then when I come back I could come up with said thing and sell it. Though that breaks the rules of time travel. You never do something for your own benefit.
 
Heck no. Things are only getting worse. In ways we still live in some good times. At least I can still find land for cheap in some places. Taxes will be insane, more regulations, more big brother like, more restrictions, more traffic robots on every corner, black boxes in cars that track everything and fine you/give you points, camera's everywhere that can see through walls. Morals declined even further. Property prices will be outrageous. Food and water super expensive, And a billion other things.
 
Just think 50 years ago, we were in the 60's. Other than the technical and medical advancements, I don't think the human race has changed all that much.
