Yes indeed! Without Money you're nobody. MONEY is in fact the best superpower ever.
Since superpower is synonymous with superhero. I'm particularly interested in knowing more about Billionaire playboy genius philanthropist superheroes Batman (Bruce Wayne) and Iron Man (Tony Stark) net worth and entreprise revenues.
These Are the 5 Richest Superheroes
2. Tony Stark
Net Worth: $12.4 billion
Tony Stark, otherwise known as Iron Man, narrowly edges out Wayne in the battle of billionaire playboys. Interestingly, while Forbes ranks Stark’s wealth ahead of Batman, the publication lists Stark Industries’ revenue ($20.3 billion) as less than that of Wayne Enterprises. Chalk it up to Wayne’s legendary philanthropy.
3. Bruce Wayne
Net Worth: $9.2 billion
Considering Bruce Wayne’s superpower is essentially “being rich enough to afford gadgets and karate training,” it makes sense that the Batman would be pretty loaded. Forbes estimates Wayne’s worth at $9.2 billion, and lists his company, Wayne Enterprises, as having an annual revenue of $31.3 billion.
