Fly around the city for only 90 grand

Starting in 2011, you’ll finally be able to buy your very own Jetpack for a mere $90,000 — nearly half of what it’ll eventually cost to fly into space via Virgin Galactic. Read all about the Jetpacks and how they’ll change your lives, allowing you to fly to Jewel to buy your tomatoes for 99 cents. I’m continually fascinated with what people would buy if they were suddenly rich and famous. After you win the lottery and pay off the VISA card and put some money away for the college educations of the next 20 descendants and finance the end of road rage, what next? I’d probably fly to space for sure, as it’s only about 200K to fly to space. I’m not sure if I’d get a Jetpack. Actually I probably wouldn’t. I’d like to wait until I’m about 60 and they’ve had some road-testing time. Kinda like a microwave in the 50′s. Best leave some of those contraptions time to settle-in a bit.
