Not in Kiribati, they live in the future

I should move there and buy stocks

Nah man, you gotta think strategically. You move to Honolulu, and find an acquaintance in Kiribati. They give you through the stock movements from the future, and you buy/sell in the past!

You guys are being silly. Obviously that doesn't work because the speed of light limits how fast that call can come through. By the time you get the information the stock will have already moved.
