Q: How does this work?
A: Current scientific theory states that Time Travel may be possible, however the technology is a long way off.
Sorry. Wrong.

There is nothing in science which supports that view. Recently, I have been to a lecture called the "Arrow Of Time" at a local university. The lecture was given by a student of Linus Pauling, himself now one of the world's leading authorities on time.

Quite simply, the arrow of time flows in one direction, and it cannot flow in a different direction. Additionally, it is not possible, under any existing theories, to travel in time, except in the way we are ALREADY travelling in time.

What a preposterous theory: pay future people to bring you forward - LOL. In THAT time, you are dead, and therefore do not own anything! Your funds are free to be absorbed by the government, as "dead money" is claimed today. Even if you have descendants - yeah, those guys are REALLY likely to bring you forwards TO SPEND THEIR MONEY!

I have a book called Time's Arrow, by Huw Price (U of Sydney). In an epigraph he quotes Marx which sums it all up:

Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.

Hmm comparing time to an arrow eh Mobi? Last I checked, arrows alter their trajectory when they come across a gravity source.. Then so will time. Arrows can theoretically change direction, so therefore time can too.

See! I can make up bogus theories and swear by them too!

Actually, I realized this doesn't really work. The fact that the poeple who've already signed up for this haven't been whisked off to the future already indicates that A. time-travel will never be possible or B. this particular fund will die out before it is possible.
