I wonder if someone could get super insanely rich by building a pipeline to the middle of the desert from the ocean, digging a giant hole and building a beach resort on formerly worthless land.
You're basically describing Dubai
Dubai is over the sea, no need for long pipes
I think you should be already super rich to build the giant pipe tho
Nah you just need to find some
suckersidiotsinvestors who want in on this innovative and brilliant idea.Then honestly you don't even have to build the pipe
You can only steal investor money if you're already rich and the investment is coming from the government.
Nah, it's easy as this project would be like most mining startups - you just need a liar and a hole in the ground
It's easy to pretend to be rich. Ferrari rentals are actually pretty cheap.

Realistically, a project importing sea water inland would likely salt up the freshwater aquifer beneath the desert...creating more desert - elsewhere.
