A princely escort:

The princes' highly recognizable faces (and Harry's iconic red hair) are hidden by their costumes, but in-the-know fans can be on the lookout for one specific scene. Boyega, who plays the former stormtrooper now known as Finn, says they appear guarding him in an elevator along with two other famous stormtroopers -- actor Tom Hardy and Gary Barlow from British pop group Take That.

  "It was a great experience," Boyega said of the scene with the princes, who are second- and fifth-in-line for the British throne. The London-born actor also called the elevator moment "the best of both worlds for me."

    however I think the world needs very explicit limits on wealth ownership

    The world already has very explicit limits on wealth ownership, much honored in the breach, such as laws against theft.

    well when you have the average person being much more wealthy than they are right now

    Why would they be? The zero sum assumption rears its ugly head.

    you can easily band together to create a coop venture

    I've personally participated in two such coop ventures and have experience with several others. The vast majority of them have three orders of magnitude or more less funding than SpaceX did when it started, but the whole lot of them is probably substantially less funded than SpaceX is. They do interesting and remarkable things on those shoe-string budgets, but putting several hundred million dollars into developing an orbital launch vehicle inside of 15 years is not one of those things you should expect.

    The general public having a little more money, hypothetically, is not going to change that problem enough to matter.
