Well, a million of us have more money than each of them and instead of exploring space or feeding the poor, I (a member of the million) am going to choose to buy a MacBook Pro. Our collective $2 billion is going to go to consumer devices.

Worse: money is going to ephemeral people experiences. Restaurant, Dinseyland, theater, Netflix. And many of them have a negative environmental impact.
