This Iranian woman has coughed up $20 mil - no kiddn' - for a 10-day trip to space. The Russians seem to be big into space tourism, and a large part of it I guess is that the Russians space program is hard up for cash and they'll gladly take whatever money they can get.
What'd I do if I have $20 mil of spare change lying around the house? I'd spend it on some program that provides healthcare for the poor and the un-insured. No one should suffer because they can't afford to pay for a doctors visit; certainly no one in a nation as rich and prosperous as the United States . That's where I'd invest the money.
