I would have at least visited museums and the likes in cities I can't afford to visit, as well as making food with all the tasty high quality ingredients I can't afford.
Maybe drive around on some expensive motorbike just to see how it feels. If my financial situation at the time was especially dire, maybe take a "loan" from a bank somewhere before unfreezing time.
You'd have to be a saint to have that power and not do anything illegal. But one thing I would never do is fuck over regular people, only corporations and big businesses. After time unfreezes, those can recover from whatever I did and I doubt I'd but a significant dent in their profit margins, but regular people would have to live with the consequences of what I did, so that's a no go.
i see that we have different ideas about what 'nasty' means :)
A saint to not break laws? Laws are not morality, often they run directly counter to morality.
Eh, I honestly probably wouldn't do much. If we're going with the typical "time stop" rules where people just lock up and the days never change (trying to not think too hard about the physics), I would probably just work on a lot of hobbies that I don't have time for normally.
That's really boring, so I guess that says a lot about me... Now I'm sad.
