Technically, by searching about the brazilian fart thing, he can find out which of those sites are going strong and which of them arn't, and if any of them are small enough and publicly traded, dump your savings into

Although, butterfly effect is a thing, and the person did not specify how the time travel affects the timeline. If the time travel happens in a way that the butterfly effect will happen, the lotto numbers could potentially change as well

    Would the butterfly effect actually apply for a trip to the future? I understand how it applies to a trip in the past to affect the future but by the time you winning the lottery does anything the future you're affecting isn't gonna change anything anymore, right? Timey-wimey stuff...

    going forwards and coming back is exactly like just going back from that forward point

    (you're just not experiencing the effect take place in the second one if you go back to the future)
