I would rather wait for the Magic carpet service due by 2025.

And the home teleportation portal announced for 2027. I just hope it doesn't have too many privacy implications.
Personally, I'm more worried about the potential for a foreign object(eg. a fly) being present in the booth and becoming merged with myself as part of the teleportation process. scary stuff!
See Larry Niven for SF speculation around the implication of transfer booths.
Big Magic Carpet will shut the whole teleportation industry down before it even gets going
