high frontier labor market

Which you get to by hitching a ride on a Soyuz, right? How many decades do
you suppose it'll be before a ticket like that can be had by less than a
multi-millionaire (hell, you can't even go suborbital for less than a couple
hundred thousand)? I'd rather not wait...I'm afraid I might be dead before
that happens.

Just a wild guess, but going for a weekend or a week is a couple of
orders of magnitude easier and might make for a nice stepping stone.
