It is going to take a while, but I think the rest of the world will soon realize the opportunity such lift capabilities offer and we will see much more tourism and space manufacturing (capitalizing on micro-g). For the record, the actual Mars stuff is a bit insane, but as a post-rationalist, having a crazy goal like that--to the extent it encourages innovation--is a good thing. The interest in the $350B valuation was very robust according to Musk (who doesn't lie), so I think this target is slightly more likely than not.
