Now I wouldn’t spend that much money on a short trip to the edge of space even if I had it. If I’m going to blow that much money at once, I’ll blow it on charity.

It’s the whole “edge of space” thing that really pisses me off. When the billionaires started talking about creating their own space program, I was expecting corporate settlements on the moon or Mars–dystopian, to be sure, but at least humanity would be making progress to the stars. But no, let’s be content with charging people to get to the edge of space so they can go home and tell themselves they’re astronauts.
