Win space flight, be thwarted by Taxes, get a consulting job

Brian Emmet, the guy who one a trip into suborbital space from Oracle, is getting a free ride. Benson Space Co. heard about Brain's trouble with the tax man and offered to hire him as a consultant for the ride. Now the whole trip is a tax write off - take that tax man! At least, now that Brian is using the trip to space for work it seems like it could be a write off, but I suppose he still won the trip and probably has to pay taxes. This is when reporters would probably call people and ask.

Brain will give Benson feedback on the ride into space as a way of improving their own suborbital experience. Benson Space Co is a new player in the space tourism industry who hopes that they can cash in with their suborbital spaceship Dream Chaser. Rides aboard Dream Chaser will seat six, just like SpaceShip One from Virgin Galactic.
