Fermi's Paradox is amusing but hardly convincing to ET's devotees, such as Drake himself, who assures all that his big number multiplication will some day be verified, if you just give more money to SETI.
Fermi's Paradox is right. It's back of the envelope calculations, but they should have found us or we found them during Fermi's time. Instead, the atheist scientists found the fine tuning parameters when trying to explain the Big Bang. It works against evolution, so they have hidden it and only the creation scientists talk about it.
As for money, it's a total waste. Stephen Hawking and Russian billionaire Yuri Milner who put up $100 million have been searching for almost five years now. Hawking is dead. Sagan is dead. All of the scientists who believed in finding aliens are dead. Milner will give up in 2025 as it will be a waste of money as SETI has been doing it for sixty five years now with absolutely no sign of aliens. Seventy years of looking means no aliens.
What is more interesting is whether we can live on another planet. This may not be possible as Earth looks to be the most habitable planet and there are no other.
