I sure hope the sub is okay.
Oh dear.
Anyway…
A billionaire doing his part on stopping the existence of billionaires would be great. I fear the inheritence, though. Maybe something good will come out of it.
I can only say: I would have not wished that person harm. I would have wished them to return safely. But it does not make me sad to hear that they did not.
If only these people didn’t have so much money to waste, they’d be safe. Karma?
Well, it is like space exploration. There are scientists, engineers and those who dream to be them. It is just part of humanity that we love going on adventures, that’s the same for rich and poor. Only that some are more risk tolerated and some less
This man is not a scientist, engineer, or anyone with any social value whatsoever.
He might fund people who are though (…though I wish we didn’t have a system that would need that…)
Well anyone ‘could’ fund anything, but this guy has made his fortune on private jets, him dying is almost certainly a good thing for the world. Imagine how much damage.
The company that provides these tours uses the money to also perform scientific research on the Titanic.
I hope the other people get rescued though. :(
Cool
Can you explain how this classifies as news, @hikarulsi@lemmy.world?
This is massively insulting to the rest of the people onboard, who are not mentioned in the article from what I saw.
Billionaires dying is news in my book!
Sixty people die when Russia bombs a Ukrainian school and it passes by without much reaction. A sub with 4 people who know the risk of what they’re doing and a billionaire thrill seeker goes missing and it’s news to follow hourly.
I’m only following to make sure he’s really dead. The world could use less billionaires
I get where you are coming from, but there was a lot of coverage of that event back in May.
Also, billionaires should not exist.
Every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes.
