Space Tourism
$35M to walk in space: 20 large for the trip to the International Space Station (via the Ruskies, natch) and 15 bones to step outside.
This is one of the few areas where I think our massive and possible immorally inequitable distribution of wealth might pay off. If this catches on, it should drive innovation and competition to improve space access for the rest of us.
