That is not what I said.
You save money on fuel because there is only a fraction of Eartha gravity. Space flight is so expensive because you need huge rockets to propel heavy arse ships and equipment to space

I agree there is fuel there, I disagree that maintaining a moon base to extract it saves us money.
With the Moon, you'd need less than a 1/6 of the fuel needed to launch from there in comparison to the Earth. Logistically speaking, I think it's far more practical to first build a Moon Base, and then launch to Mars from said base.
