Mt.Everest is also a big source of tourism dollars, from what I heard. You have to buy a hiking permit to go up there. There are many guides for hire, to go with you, who make money from Mt. Everest tourism.

I recall a while back, seeing pictures with a line of people waiting to get up to the top of Mt. Everest. Who knew at the top of the world, that you have to line up to get there?

Sadly there are dead bodies up there too, because it’s dangerous to go hiking in that environment, and some don’t come out alive.

That there is so much wealth in the world, that people would be able to line up.

I’ll bet they don’t have their Gigs taxed, like the Lyft and Uber situation.
