I am pleased to note that the must-have accessory for the eccentric dot-com zillionare mogul is no longer the 100-foot yacht, but a private space program!

Currently in the lead would be SpaceX, founded by Elon Musk, who made his gazillions starting PayPal and selling it to Ebay.  They are building a family of boring but cheap traditionalish boosters
