Would You Pay $20,000,000 To Takle A Ride In Space?

[apmiller]

I read an article about a man who is paying the Russain Government $20,000,000 to take him up in space for a little get-a-way.

Though NASA is still trying to put a stop to it, it does bring forth the question: Would you pay for a 2-3 day trip in space and how much are you willing to pay?

Frankly if I had the money and the option I would do it!

[Memo]

If I had the money and option I would do it as well. It's an opportunity no one else in the world has ever gotten. To see how small the world looks from up there? I'd do it in a heartbeat if I had even close to the amount of cash that guy has :)

That guy is like a multi multi millionare. If I had as much money as him it would be like paying 20,000 for a vacation. It might seem a little expensive to you and I but to him it's nothing.

i would pay that much to be with....nevermind

[TheLoneGunman]

Ok. Where do I send the money?

Shouldn't this be on the "deals" page?

[cruelpupet]

Not only would I pay 20,000,000 to go up, but I'd throw a party when a got there!

They would have to pay me to do that. I wouldn't go skydiving, bungee jumping or go on one of those sky high roller coasters, either.

I am PETRIFIED of heights, but I did fall out of a plane at 14,000 feet.

IT WAS SO COOL!!!!

Wow!

it is the trippiest experience you will ever have. Also, that fear of heights thing is a bit irrelevant when you are plummiting to earth at 200 mph.

I couldnt see myself doing anything like that...theres to much out for me to spend money on(no matter how much money I had) and going to space isnt one of them...

How bout a space simulator, would that do.

If the rich boy get's his chance to vacation in space, I'm sure there will be a hole blitz of movies and TV shows about normal folk on their space getaways!

Can we say "LOVE BOAT"? Finding love in space! When will McDonald's open up the space fast food joint?
