You have just "acquired" the technology to teleport yourself to other universes in the multiverse. You can visit any number of the infinite possible realities, basically do what you want.
What do you do with your life from then on?

Go to the unihabeted ones. We KNOW where the resourses are. Use exsisting maps.
Saudi oil, with no arabs.
South African platinum, gold, emeralds and diamonds. How many Hope diamonds do you want? No tribal primatives, no racist colonial holdovers.
Uranium, with no greens to complain.
All the hardwoods we can clearcut.No greens.
Access to extinct species! A whale here, a whale there, the oceans are whole soon. Reintroduce more cheetas, to flesh out the gene pool. Dodos, passenger pigeons, you name it. Only eat/use endangered species on worlds that they are not endangered in.
Planets with NO life, giving us the ULTIMATE toxic disposal site.Same thing with dangerous genetic/nuclear/chemical experiments.Use these worlds to buid Orion drive nuclear spaceships. Put Megatonns of raw material in orbit, and D-hop back here. Instant space station/moonbase.
Room to spead out, on non human worlds, making humanity safe from one shot extincion events. Hell, you could have your own private world if you wanted.

Go to other dimensions and search for things that don't exist in our reality, like in a little semistoryverse. Find a dimension with different gravity laws, but still similar enough for me to survive, and bring back objects with enough mass to create huge wormholes in this dimension. W00t! FTL! And other stuff.
Or just find the Earth that's just like The Culture and live the rest of my life in decadent luxuary.

Everything, in all different realities. That's the point of PUs, afterallAdmiral Valdemar wrote:You have just "acquired" the technology to teleport yourself to other universes in the multiverse. You can visit any number of the infinite possible realities, basically do what you want.
What do you do with your life from then on?

Find a universe with easily accessed immortality/invurnerablity tech. Lots of things can go wrong, and if I die, not only I'm dead but also the tech to jump dimensions would very likely fall into the wrong hands (espically if I get shot, make enemies, etc.) This is also helpful in that I won't have to worry so much about procrastination.
In the meantime, see if I can get mental/physiological/misc upgrades to myself. Again, if I choose to interact with the universes, then I'll probably piss some people off and even if I can't die without my own consent, I certainly might be able to get trapped. Along the same lines, I'll probably also collect up interesting items and equipment.
Eventually, the power/number of universes aviavble, along with all the possible improvements I could do could get to me, so I might try to forcibly fix alot of the stuff. (Thus, I might become a tyrant/god-like being.)
If I can resist that, I might become a Wanderer, and simply visit places all the time. To prevent myself from getting bored I simply might end up copying my idea of an afterlife of a bunch of limited memory alter-egos.
However, it also occurs to me that if I have the technology to jump dimensions, presumably to can be duplicated by others, some of which would probably have less than noble intentions. So perhaps my efforts would go to safeguard my 'home multiverses' from hostile forces. (There is the possiblity of actually trying to unite multiple universes under an alliance, although I admit that would raise interesting problems of it's own.)

I would jump to a world where technology was used to enhance the body. Bribe an engeneer and have him create me a suit to boost my physical abilities 200 times fold. It would be a suit like iron mans but not quite the same for the reason of not wanting to rip off iron man. I will call myself Iron guy. I would then hire a group of mercenarries to aquire the same technology and travel back to another sister demension there afterwords. This world would be very peaceful and simple. Me and my band of marry mercenaries would then proceed to take over the planet, and build a nuclear reactor silo near the earths core to use the energy to create an explosive device with a blast radious only reachable by 10 atomic nuclear missiles. I would then send the device into the core itself causing an obliterating effect on the planet, killing all life on it. This planar colapse in one demension would set up a chain reaction detonating all the sister worlds in a somewhat domino effect, thus ending all life in all earths and going down in mystery as the greatest serial murder that never lived... because noone lived to talk about it.
..... or i guess i could just go to another demension to find a pair of shoes that i think are neato

I find the one where I'm the messiah with gnarly powers, I then come back here and go apeshit.
