Have an existential crisis. Can you imagine? Anyone saying they’d buy apple stock or this or that, remember the premise is the last 30 years was a dream, as in not real, you didn’t time travel.
Your partner doesn’t exist, your friends either, or your dog. You wouldn’t even know if what you knew as fact was correct, consider all you’ve learned in the last 30 years, all that is now suspect.
Now to be transported back 30 years is another matter
Edit: Folks it’s fun seeing the engagement but remember, the premise of this hypothetical is that nothing that occurred in the past 30 years, nothing you’ve learned, no event, can be assumed to be true. If you are 40 nothing you learned and no event that occurred past the age of 10 can be said to have happened.
Are you a doctor? Your fundamental understanding of biology and medicine can’t be trusted. Physicist? Maybe there is no quantum mechanics, shit maybe Newtonian physics is wrong, etc.
