future-proofing

idle-contemplation about my future... reminded me of her words.. that she always saw a/some potential in me.. maybe that of a un-cut diamond.. or that she always thought i'd be successful... and then i connected this with the story-line of minority report... or any time-travel fantasy.. and the concept is...

that...

if you could find a way to get into the future and find-out how the events would un-fold... you could go back in to the present and ensure a better tomorrow. NOW, if only tomorrow's business-men could all go into the future.. and see the great conglomerate that i would build. all the people that would be my future competition could come back to today.. and make me some sort of token payment. on a recurring basis, to ensure that i do not enter their line of business and destroy them as my future-past-competitiors.

this way... i could get paid for doing nothing.. coz my nothing here would be very beneficial to their lives...
now if only science could take us where my mind went.. and if only more people read this blog.
kind friends.. .spread the word!!

umm if u know the future, n u go back n change things...then the future changes.So u actually dont know the future.
n if u know the future then whatever u will do will make the future- so whats the point?

hehehe, that reminds of a paper i read, which talked about reducing fiscal deficits by travelling in time and undoing all the unnecessary expenditure that cud have lead to the fiscal imbalance, and then returning back to the present and enjoying the fruits of the investments that were just 'unmade' by you.
funny, the paper was nominated for the IGNobel prize in economics, and it lost!
