A moon base must have seemed inevitable to those in the 1960s too.

1960s is a bit too optimistic. I personally think it'll happen in the 1970s.

If building a base on the moon created wealth and would have rewarded the builders with billions of dollars, then yes, we'd probably have a base on the moon by now.

Not much money in moon bases. Transportation industry is over half a trillion $ though.
