If you had the choice to be a billionaire if you go back a few million years in earths age but have to wait it out til you reach the age of humans. Would you do it and wait?

Practically you already waited all that time but you weren't aware of it. Now imagine having to watch it.

I think they're saying two things. 1) You have to live for a few million years in the past in order to get a billion dollars when you reach the present age. 2) You can't just go to sleep for a long time to get out of the scenario.

I don’t think that’s what they’re saying.
