Line 53:
* [[Money to Throw Away]]: Joel doesn't go crazy, but he does fix up the cubic he shares with his roommates, making all of them more comfortable.
* [[Polyamory]]: Mentioned in passing as one of the marriage options available on the ''Sheffield''.
* [[Naming Your Colony World]]: And its moons. Actually a discussion in-universe. The colony was technically and formally named "Brasil Novo" (New Brazil), but this was rapidly shortened to "Bravo". The moons were originally [[Name's the Same|Phobos and Deimos]], but were changed to those of [[AuthorWriter Onon Board|famous musicians]].
* [[No Seat Belts]]: Justified. If you need them at 0.97c, you don't need them. And when things go wrong on the Sheffield, gravity turns off and people float, they don't fly into walls.
* [[Non-Idle Rich]]: The Conrads. They're richer than Croesus, but they put themselves through hellishly difficult educations and work for the money. For all of their medically extended lives. However, see [[Rich Idiot With No Day Job]].
