Its crazy the amount of money spent on MH370... does anyone know how much it compares to the payout of the victim's families?
For example, consider another flight that disappeared mysteriously over the ocean: Air France 447.

It took nearly 2 years to find and recover the flight recorders. Once they were analyzed, the results were shocking: the pilots flew a perfectly good aircraft into the ocean after a relatively minor technical fault. It had a major impact on pilot training and procedures across the globe.
That's why they'll keep searching for MH370. Beyond closure for the families, there's a chance that there was something in that crash that we all need to know.
MH370 is orders of magnitude harder to find, and AF447 was a huge effort.
Do you have any sources for that? Everything I've read has suggested it as possible but never going stronger than probable
