I'd really really rather wait for fusion.

Over 40 years ago, when I was checking out colleges to attend, the tour at one school took us thru a fusion research lab that iirc had a Tokomak (or some similar contraption).

IMO no way that practical fusion happens even 40 years from now. I won't be around to see it.

Maybe the Chicago Cubs win another World Series before we see practical fusion? Could that happen? :)

I never expected to see space rockets landing down on their feet, like in 1950s sci-fi novels, yet here we are :)
