Ask my future self. Telling my past self something is very likely to have no affect on my life (what if past actions only affect that “me” and not me-me), whereas asking my future self something will always end up with me gaining information - no guarantee its relevant, but it’s more likely to be.
“Tell me the most important thing you can tell me”
My future self will know best about what I need to know. Winning lottery/investments can make me rich now, but maybe there’s a nuclear war, climate apocalypse, or some other disaster in 5 years and my future self can tell me where to be and what to do before it starts.

What would you ask your future self?
Who wins the super bowl for the next 10 years or some other betting-friendly thing I can ask to change my financial situation.
