For a lot of things, yes. There's an old saying that skydiving costs a
hundred bucks for your first jump, and half your income for the rest of
your life. With inflation, make that $200.

Ya wanna rocket ride to space? Somewhere between $50K to $100K to
play... Tourists are the golden fleece of the 21st century.
