Should You Cash Out Your 401k for a Ticket to Space?

This week on The Capitalist Investor, we launch into the fast-growing space economy—from space tourism hype to real investment opportunities. Derek opens with a hilarious hypothetical: should you drain your 401k to buy a $450,000 Virgin Galactic flight? Spoiler: probably not—but the question sparks a deeper dive into space tech, exploration, and where savvy investors are looking.

Dave and Derek explore:

Why space exploration matters: from national security to saving humanity
Everyday tech that came from NASA (LASIK, memory foam, firefighting tools)
Top space-focused ETFs like ARKX and companies like Intuitive Machines (LUNR)
Why SpaceX is still out of reach—and how to prep for when it’s not
Is space the next survival frontier... or just another billionaire’s playground?

Whether you’re into rockets, returns, or the reality behind space hype—this episode breaks it down with insight and humor.
🎧 Listen now and give your portfolio a little rocket fuel.
