I rather risk going back one week and winning the lottery, than going back 50 plus years and risking the lives of hundreds if not thousands of millions of people. If those 50 mil wouldn't die, I think it's almost sure most of us would never be born, too much variables would be introduced into the equation of live if you were to save such a huge amount of people and change such a significant milestone in history. Butterfly effect my friend.
