The Time Travel Fund: Your Ticket To The Future.

Q: How?
A: We establish a fund in current time. You make a small contribution to the fund, and in a few hundred years that small amount grows to a very large amount. From that fund, moneys will be taken and used to retrieve you, perhaps seconds after you join, perhaps even moments before your recorded death, perhaps some other point in your lifetime. Further, the fund may even pay to have you "rejuvenated" medically (assuming this is scientifically possible at that time,) and support you financially for a number of years. (Note: Retrieving you just before the moment of death is just one possible scenario, but one that would avoid any Star Trek^(TM) type paradoxes. There are an unlimited number of other possibilities, and we do not know what they will do, we can only make reasonably informed guesses.)

Interesting. I do see a couple of tiny problems.

• If time travel had really been invented wouldn't money become completely valueless as anybody with a working time machine could just pop back in time, invest a small amount then, and hop back into the future to collect their fortune? Why would they even need your paltry contribution?
• And what assurances do we have that the people managing The TimeTravel Fund have the resources to get your money into the right hands (i.e. the people with time machines)? I mean they'll be dead already themselves so who's going to go back in time and fetch them back to the future if they're not around to do it?

Still, nice money making idea. I wonder how many suckers, er, I mean investors, have paid into TTTF?
