    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)
