I.e. one can start a small launch company to pick up those crumbs, or one can develop some tech that the SpaceX or their clients would find useful in a few years - like ionic drive fed from solar panels or nuclear drive for Earth-Mars ships (either way beating the chemical drive) - or just develop some business to utilize the coming huge Starship launching capacity ($500K/person weekend trips around the Moon anybody?). So, while more speculative, the upside of investing in such companies may be higher.
