I've got some decent smithing skills, I'd go looking for bog iron and skip the bronze age.

Absolutely nothing lol. I do tech support for a living and work on cars as a hobby.
Well, cavemen also need tech support, just a different kind of tech.

Pepsison: "Have you tried rebooting it?"
Gork: "?"
Pepsison: "Sorry, old habit" Sharpens his spear "try it now"

Hoarder. Of things that might conceivably be used one day.
You need weird rock? I got weird rock.

tfw you can't say "town bike" bc bicycles won't be invented for thousands of years
i think i'd make good bait though
The hard part about a simple bicycle isn't actually the bicycle, it's smooth road. If you don't have that you have to invent the mountainbike and that one's not even a 100 years old.

I'd probably be something of a builder/ "engineer."
I'm not actually an engineer, but I have a knack for utilizing what I have around me or simple enough objects to serve other goals. I suppose I'm what people used to call a Macgyver or "mechanically inclined."
I have this but for bicycles and ropes exclusively. First one is out, so I'm rope guy I guess

I'm good with plants, I'm observant, I like stargazing, I'm a good de-escalator. I'd probably an elder and end up doing some type of weather forecasting.

Cave wall art. Carving trinkets and talismans. Might branch out into making spear tips, arrowheads, axes, stuff like that.

You reckon the stuff back then was potent enough that people would buy it?

With or without my current knowledge?
Because I'm pretty sure I could smelt Iron with what I know, and a year or two of experimentation. So the answer would be "ending the stone age".
Without? I dunno, maybe building traps and snares.

Recreational drug use can be traced to before written history. Bartering also existed then. I'd be a drug dealer.
Fun fact: Barter only seems to occur in human societies when a. markets were previously established b. those markets collapse. Check out David Graber's 'Debt: first 5000 yrs' for more info. Most societies are debt based- as in people just do things for each other but keep basic accounts in there heads. Eg. You paid for dinner out last month, i'll pay this month(doesn't really matter how much was spent, the exactness isn't very important) Or, my grandma makes the coolest knit socks, I'm gonna ask her to make some for me and then shes gonna have me do some yard work when i visit later.
