Out of touch billionaires should put some focus into more important world issues, war poverty, etc...
$55m of their own money, but no one says anything about the other astronauts. What, do they fly there for free?
€55,000,000 be better spent feeding the hungry, homing the homeless or looking after the vulnerable in society. But I doubt they’d even fmgive a thought to anyone on the margins.
Disgusting, then with no moral compass throw it at the face of poverty.
Do you pissed off people realise that money will probably be spent on research?!
Give a ***k
Obscene
Millionaires in 2022 = people that can afford their electricity bill
Can I use my Amex air miles?
Maybe spend their money on feeding the starving
😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍
I’m glad to see civilians in space. Space shouldn’t just be for Bureaucrats. Everything starts expensive then becomes cheaper and more available in capitalism. To guarantee our species we need to be interplanetary. Look at the big picture people.
Such a waste of money that could be put to far better use than a vanity excursion.
Must be nice to have soo much money when millions in the world are dying of starvation.....
500 Mill to go 250 miles, that's nearly as expensive as an uber
Disgraceful while millions strave the rich play.
😔
55 million that the Ukraine🇺🇦 could well do with !
I can think of quite a few to take up then show them the Emergency Exit.
Seriously, EU folks, you should collect and ship your empty bottles with corks/lids, rags, backpacks and sealed drums of kerosene for Ukraine citizens' personal protection. Every person should be armed with Molotov Cocktails in backpacks. End rape and kidnapping in Ukraine NOW
Stupid waste of money just think 🤔 how that could be spent .
Disgusting. What’s the actual point of there journey? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
Good this will help fund more important projects hopefully
They must have eaten out to help out too
This seems so self indulgent. There are people in this country sleepIng on the street. This money could do so much good to help people.
Must confess my perception of what defines a 'millionaire' requires substantial revision ... otherwise, how can a mere millionaire afford $55 million
What a bloody waste of money to fuel the ego with a joy ride to outer space.
He looks dead, so no thank you
Wonder if Sunak and his family are off there on holiday!
