Enquiring minds will enjoy the fact that the derivatives exposure in total may be as much as 1.4 Quadrillion dollars. I had to Google to even find out what a quadrillon dollars is. Turns out it is 1,000 trillons. Or to put it another was, it is one thousand of these heaps.
Or to put it in a way that we can all understand, it is 230 thousand odd dollars, assuming that I have done the decimal places right, for every breathing soul on the planet.
What could possibly go wrong?
We have a satellite delivery system idea that produces zero space junk.
Each launch lifts six satellites and a 200 passenger landing vehicle to share the cost.
After six launches we attach the used rocket hardware, remove the tanks and reattach them to the outside, clean and renovate, place the 36 satellite and open for rent.
Would you like to see what we will rent as a resort with five levels of artificial gravity?
We can walk you through 1 of the 6 used rockets.
Lets imagine a $20,000,000 launch.
Each of the 200 passengers pays $40,000.
Each satellite pays $2,000,000
