Too long to discuss here, but suffice it to say that my priorities are Earth based. I also realized that Mars is in good hands given what I've seen.




Yeah, I went off and had kids since Mars wasn't an option in my 20's. Now I want to be where they are.

Of course that leaves me free to become the oppressive Earth-based space industry tycoon who owns all those comet mining ships and belter stations :)


OPA for life, bossmang.


I'm only half joking, kopeng mi. One of the startups I currently have on the back-burner is a space resource commodity market and mining claim exchange, to jumpstart an investment market for asteroid and lunar mining startups.

Interesting, drop me a line when you get either off the ground!


I see you don't have an email address in your profile, so I temporarily added one in mine for the next few days. Shoot me an email.
