Most realistically?
Enrich myself and my family for generations...with the byproduct goal of establishing another link toward an improved humanity.
I have grown disillusioned with the idea that any one person can truly impact the growth of mankind in any meaningful way. This process must occur slowly and painfully and requires a concerted and collective effort. Unfortunately we must often feel shame and regret on a collective scale before we move substantially toward a more peaceful and civilized world.
Even Jesus Christ of Nazareth, to whom a great deal has been attributed, only marginally improved our lot and only in sporadic and inconsistent ways. Indeed, one need only consider the perverse effects His teachings has had on the moral justifications for slavery, misogyny, anti-semitism, religious intolerance and homophobia.
Great question. But I must bow to honesty.

What would I do with it? Nothing.
Because I wouldn't be me, anymore. I wouldn't be even human- for being human is being in the dark when it comes to the truly important things in this universe.
I don't have knowledge of everything. But the person who I'll turn into- he'll know what to do.

If I know everything, I would invent/come up with something that will make others know everything as well. Then the human race shall rule the universe --- but wouldn't that be too destructive? We are humans, after all.

Considering how we teach our students this is a very good question.
The truth is it wouldn't change a thing. Knowledge by itself is useless. What is important is understanding and the ability to determine what is important.

I tell people that I already know everything and what I do not know I make up.
If I really did know everything I would be very much alone. no one would want to be near me. They would say" who are you you know it all?"
unlike now, I would have to be silent.

Share some of it. Charge for the rest.

Never tell anybody.
Invest.
Hire body guards.
