Could be much worse, really.
I'm in a suburbs very close to Paris, in a village that would be considered part of Paris itself in a few decades. Louis XIV just died, but the Regent is pretty fucking based, economy is recovering from decades of war and we're at peace for now. Great time to be in Paris itself too. Louis XIV moved the court to Versailles because he didn't trust the Parisians, but he still did a lot to improve the city and you have new avenues, monuments, plazas, gardens everywhere. The Regent moved it's court back into the city. Intellectual life is booming, salons and cafés are opening all over the place. It's the second largest city in Europe, but still pretty much the center of it. There are merchants, diplomats, students from all over France and all over the world.
As for my plans, I have to consider my assets: I can read and write, know French, English, Spanish, and bits and pieces of Latin, Ancient Greek and other languages. I have received an education that is superior to what 99% of the people get. I'm from a noble family, but with no way to prove it other than my signet ring and a vague ressemblance. Of course I have knowledge of future events, but trying to rely on that is a sure way of ending up in an asylum. I could probably find a job as a tutor or a secretary by hanging out in the right places, and make my way up from there. With a bit of luck, ending up as a diplomat or an advisor to some high ranking official isn't out of the question. In that position, I could try to influence events, especially anything related to how badly Louis XV will fuck our shit up.
Other than that, with that kind of money I could probably emigrate to America, buy myself land in New France, the Thirteen Colonies, or Saint-Domingue, and make a fortune from lumber, sugar, tobacco, or cotton.
Here's something if you want to imagine what Paris around that time sounded and looked like: youtube.com/watch?v=YP__1eHeyo4
