You've been given the gift of "REVERSION". You can rewind the world to a single date in the past NOTHING ages, not even you. It will remain exactly as it was then - no new inventions, those who were alive then won't die. Do you accept this gift? If so, when do you go to and why?

Reversion is a one time offer, and once accepted or denied, the effects of which are permanent and cannot be reversed or rescinded. If denied. You'll forget ever having been made the offer, and continue aging 'with everyone else and the world' as you normally would.

If, however, you accept the gift of reversion, when you fall asleep tonight, you'll wake up with ALL the memories of this timeline, this future, in the body you lived in back in the past at the date specified.

IF you choose a date before you were born, you'll simply not wake up tomorrow.

One last thing: The date and time do move forward on a normal basis, but progress halts, age halts, no one is curious or questions this in any way, to them - this is how things always were and always will be. Invention 'wont take root' and any attempts you make to introduce new technologies or science will simply be ignored. So you won't be able to go back in time and use 'invention' to make money from others before it was introduced to the world.

Just to re-iterate and clarify:

Time moves forward, unchanging should you take the option. Think about it like a freeze frame. Stocks stay the same, bitcoin remains unchanged, inventions you try to introduce before their time are ignored. Any money making scheme that requires gaining value over time simply doesn't make money.
