what could you build?

[D088Y]

if you could go back in time to any point to build something before someone else did e.g. the electric motor what could you build all by yourself with the tools availible at the time and no one to help you? ps you can return to our time after you have built this invention in order to gain all the money from the invention

for me i would mention my example an electric motor as i understand how it works and that it does not require too advanced technology to make and then return to the year 2015 so that i can start to spend all of my profit

Money. I would be the guy who invented money.

I'd tell them that the earth revolves around the sun.

1. He asked what would you BUILD. 2. You would get burned / stoned just for that.

I would probably build the steam engine/ the first train.

Any invention that made serious cash.

Either the Reflecting Telescope moving it to Galileo's time rather than Newtons or the internal combustion engine, also moving it forward a few years.
