Inclusive of the 30's even though WWII started in 1939.

Which would it be and why? Take into consideration you are really rich and you can't change history at all. You can pick any top paying position (No world leader, CEO, inventor or something that can alter history massively). Also take into consideration everything about the location you pick as well because history does affect that area.

For example if you lived in India in the 1900's, you'll be affected by everything that happened there but you'll survive and be well off.
 
1910s, where I would be a leading member of the Suffragettes. I would be rich enough to avoid some of the discomforts of war in my big suburban home & would see the beginnings of change.

Suburbs weren't really a thing before WW2.

I don't really want to go off-topic, but they began to be "a thing" in UK in the mid-to late 19th century, with the growth of the railways

Apologies, that would be my American-centric brain at work.
 
20s because I like the fashion and architecture. However I dislike everything else about the past, especially with ethics and civil rights.
 
1930's.

The glitzy and glamour of Hollywood's golden age. The fashion, the cars, the lifestyle was awesome compared to the 1920's. Plus I could a Hollywood starlet, if I could act or sing.
 
1910's in Mexico. I would have a huge hacienda...[size=-10]maybe I'll perish in the war but at least I'm rich.[/size]
 
1900s France. That's where and when a lot of my favourite music was being composed by the greats, and it'd be fascinating to be there during their premiers.
 
1900s loved to see Queen Victoria final year and see a prewar Britain where everything great and peaceful before the German Kaiser Wilhelm II ruined everything also The Daily telegraph Affair and the dreadnought,Morocco to slowly see the British people hating the Germans. I would have fled to Norway by 1914.
 
Turn of the century is probably the best choice, as the decade was largely war-free and economically stable, alongside the general excitement that came with the technological advances of the time. It really depends on where you were living, however. Even if you were rich, the Great Depression was probably not a fun time to live through. If you were rich but lived in France or Germany, 1910's were probably not kind to you either.
