I'd bring back a book detailing winning lottery numbers.

I would bring back T-Rex. Then I would sit on the T-Rex and we would then walk around being awesome.

Not so bothered about the disco balls (many places still have them anyway) but can I also have Sheena Easton wearing said boob tube and sparkly disco jeans please?

From a future possibility where you already have the archive of the financial times, so your playing the stock market with future knowledge doesn't effect the market and mean the archive is worthless. I assume.
There are so many money making possibility's, You could charge people to cure them from certain diseases or charge fat people to help them lose weight, All i would need to do is tell my nanobots to create some short life nanobots to pass to the customer do what is needed and then die.
With the archive you can ascertain which stocks that are now low in value will increase. You can also ascertain how day trades will go. Which IPOs are of value. Which if any stocks are worth buying at lows and which to get rid of at highs, as well as knowing what the highs or lows are. An ability not only to profit from Bull conditions but Bear conditions as well. Although once a fund has fund has grown to a considerable amount the only avenue of real profit is the IPO and seed funds as the margin traders would be keeping an eye on your trades, as they already do with the major corporations.
Knowledge is power, not only financial knowledge but also the news which the archive contains.
But any alteration you make to the market by buying could have huge impacts and make all those papers worthless.
Which is why it's better to bring back technology, it might change the future but you aren't going to corrupt your money making objectives.

There are problems with bringing back technology.
1 It is only machinery how can you exploit it without the knowledge
2 What are the materials that are used in it manufacture are they available and can they be produced with current technology
3 With most ground breaking technologies there are many incremental steps along the way you would have to introduce many technologies.
4 What happens if you can just use it and not understand, i use my mobile phone do i know how it works down to component level.
you get an engineer/physicist team, which can hopefully reverse engineer at least parts of it and from it work out certain steps. Bit like in terminator, they are unable to reverse engineer a terminator, but they can gather info and ideas and speed up processor design.
It is more secure than something which is influenced by your own choice. As well as giving you something you can use.

Forget technology, I'd bring back a Triceratops.
The same rules apply unfortunately purely by their existence they influence the world around them unless you are going to keep said team in an area 51 compound with no interaction with the outside. Also you would need money to hire and fund said team as well as supplying equipment needed. Such a team, materials, equipment and location would not be cheap.
But hey come to me i have the money and i offer very good terms for the right start up company.

The influence on the world would make no difference to securing your wealth. The world would change, you would still have advance tech and make money from it.
With advance tech you would not need money to set up. you just secure contracts for future money as pay.
