If time is like a river, (theory of something or other proposed by I forget whom) then I'd like to make as little a splash as possible. Assuming everyone following adheres to your set definitions and we don't "jump forward" in time, I'd go back in time no further (farther?) than 50 hours or so (3 days max).
Money is of no interest to me, but it seems to travel and lodge, one needs it handy. Plus, I'm kinda scared of the publicity of winning a lottery/sweepstakes. I think I'd like to pool my money together for awhile, plan a trip to Vegas (after leaving the present to live out the past) and bet a huge pot on an assured winning underdog, say the recent US Open results of Del Potro over Federer with 4-1 odds (via VegasBlackbook).
