Even at $485 I still wouldn't be able to convince my family members to attend.
Weekend passes to an event like Comic-Con or Otakon usually run less than $100. Smaller fan conventions, such as Intervention also keep admissions prices below $100. NECSS, a seemingly similar event, charges $65 for full price tickets. What makes the Singularity Summit so much more expensive than all these other events?
In addition to the other issues mentioned I also expect that there is much less demand elasticity for the singularity summit due to different demographics.
