If your future self suddenly appeared for 10 seconds, what would you ask them ?

investment/gambling advice pls.

I would expect him to know what I need to hear so I don't need to waste time asking anything.
- Good answer!

"Are you happy?"
Hopefully they can just say yes, not sure how I would react if they start to explain how bad they are for 10 seconds before disappearing
- "The last few years have actually been great - I feel lucky to be one of the three million surviving humans, and-"
  
  ...meat is plentiful ?
- yeah, that's pretty much the only question i'd care about. Anything else is spoilers.

I assume future me would just pass me a piece of paper with a couple of stock tips... and maybe a sports almanac.

"couldn't do it, could you?"

Stay or leave?
Future me would know what I was asking, and be able to answer wkth few words.

We wouldn't need words. Just a casual glance would tell me all I needed to know.

I'd ask if things get better.
- Do you really want to know the answer?
  
  Of course. What would hope be if blind?
