    Thanks for the quote.
    The reward for a billionaire making such a trip is to brag by saying he did something we couldn’t do. Risk he took was high despite his belief.
    No insurance plan exists to pay for the rescue operations of such idiotic selfish trips even after this question was discussed concerning sail boat races around the world’s seas.
    On the other hand, the reward for making the groceries is to have food to stay alive. Risks of death for grocery’s trip is less than 1/100_000_000 (very rough estimate).
    Let’s put our resources and energy where it is sensible.
