    Man, how generous of him. He’ll have to wait like ten hours to make that back!

      What I love about our current reality is that Bezos puts Bond villains to shame. He spent half a billion on his yacht. Goldfinger has had no comment.

          Yeah.

          The support yacht has the helipad. When it comes to people who are truly insanely filthy rich - he lives a charmed life in a charmed era. I don't know how rich the robber barons were in today's dollars. Let's say the richest had roughly what Bezos has. They still couldn't have any of his toys or amusements. They couldn't go into space. If they had had a super yacht - it would be piddly compared to Bezo's. The same goes for all other possessions and activities.

          If Bezos wants to put his footprint on the fucking moon - he will. And I bet he and his companies won't even pay a fucking penny. Somehow it'll be all funded by the US government via NASA, Space Force or whatever-the-fuck.
