Do people believe the things they say? I probably want to go case by case
How much lost money have I walked past in my life and not noticed.. can also include gold.
Nah, I'm good
"How, subsequent to receiving this answer, can I subvert my death or cause this font of knowledge to actually be useful?"
Is the Standard Model correct or is there a single fundamental particle/string/anything that we haven't discovered yet?
There are a million fundamental things everywhere that no one will ever know.
What is the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything?
What religion is correct, and what do I have to do with the short time I have left to ensure that I get into the best version of the afterlife possible?

Is there an afterlife in this scenario? Do I ask my question and go to heaven? Or is this just asking a question, getting the answer, and your consciousness blinking out of existence at the moment of death?
Because if it's the latter, frankly, I don't think I'd care that much about anything because nothing will matter in a moment. What good is knowledge without a mind to keep it? The concerns of the material world are ultimately irrelevant to void that I will soon be a part of.
I'd probably ask something stupid like "I lost my copy of Pokemon Blue when I was a kid, where did that end up?" and then disappear into that sweet, sweet nothingness.
If there's a heaven...I'll just ask people what they asked when I get there.
LoL people would end up a jibbering mess if they came up face to face with a cosmic deity that could answer any questions that they would absolutely end up accidentally asking something like, "Oh no! Did I leave my car running?" "Did I remember to feed Mr. Mittens?" Or just "Oh, am I dead then?"

What was the single thing I did that had the last direct impact on myself, that had the greatest lasting impact on anyone else?
Things like spending the extra time one day making a cup of coffee made it so this specific person was stuck behind my slow-ass speed limit driving, averting what would've been a multi-car pileup or some shit like that.

How could we prove the Riemann Hypothesis?
Where were you, when everything was falling apart? And all my days were spent by the telephone--
Will humanity ever stop repeating tired old jokes from monty python and Douglas Adams?
If yes I can die happy that things get better, if no I can welcome oblivion with joy
What happened to the other species of humans? Would they like metal? The first question can be ignored if both are not allowed

After I'm gone, how would everyone I've loved remember me?
Will our efforts in philosophy ever lead to a non-circular answer to the worth of life? I.e. will mankind ever create or find its purpose?
