Precisely. However, the thought of spending 200 hours in an economy airplane seat, or 130+ hours in any airplane seat reflecting 1.5x status credit for paid premium-class travel, would turn their stomachs. So, which is really harder? (Hint: it's not spending the money, if $60K is chump change to someone.)
