Though let's not "which you will actually get" me, guys. I WILL start Google Drive'ing enormous spreadsheets of exactly why a politically neutral quasi-utopian society known for private-sector system-scale mining, its own galactic corporation and perpetual government vault funding would have a few BILLION lying around. Granted, this money mostly turns into government budgetary spending (discluding things like military spending and social welfare as they are already pristine and/or now taken care of by a third party) but 10,000,000 in retrospect is STILL nothing. There are ships that cost more.... You should see some of the huge cuts and savings I found during the formation of the military before it became a corps of the Republic. Or the hundreds of years of semi-isolationist industrial mining for the select galactic market.
If you compared and scaled such numbers to modern governments, they would actually seem quite reasonable. It's just that everyone hears "billion" and gets intimidated because they didn't realize they were sitting next to it as well. Shoulda been a benevolent totalitarian ruler.
BUAHAHAHAHA
HUE HUE HUE.
