If the sub is designed properly, then while still dangerous should be much less so than the other one that imploded last year.

Well, let's be honest here, 30 mil in materials sounds a fuck ton better than the paltry shit they threw together when those people died in that DIY sub.
That said... it must be awfully lonely at the top. Nothing else but fucking space and the deep ocean to think about.

In a world full of coke and hookers, one has to ask himself... why do this?

There comes a time, TintoConCasera, when the jewels cease to sparkle... when the gold loses its luster... when the throne room becomes a prison... and all that is left is a father's love for pwning other billionaires."​

I'm ok with this stuff so long as he isn't misrepresenting the risks to the crew/other passengers and he pre-pays for any rescue/recovery operation. Rich people playing is what helps make tech cheaper for the rest of us.

you cant think of this with a mindset of a peasant.
Coke and hookers are easy when you are a billionaire. Can't brag them to your other billionaire friends. Hence, you'd want to seek new thrills, something no one else can easily do.
To be held in esteem is a desire foreign to most peasants, including myself. It's truly fascinating to observe people who have reached the top of Maslow's hierarchy.
