How much does it cost to be Batman?

We all know we wan’t to be Batman… but just having the strength, determination and skin tight suit is not enough. Curiosity got the best of me and I got to thinking… how much money do I need to have to be Batman?

Let’s start breaking things down

First of all let’s start with Bruce Wayne’s Net Worth… Wayne Enterprise is estimated at a total of $23,220,000,000 (twenty three billion, two hundred and twenty million) and with Bruce being the largest share holder at 50% he has a whopping net worth of $11.6 Billion.

Additional Fun Fact: This doesn’t even put Bruce Wayne in the 50 Richest people category! 

According to writer Thaddeus Howze, the total cost of being batman (Christopher Nolan’s Batman) came out to a total of approximately $682,450,750 which includes 1 Batsuit, the Batmobile, the Batpod, the Batwing, Wayne Manor, Batcave, training costs and of course Alfred’s salary.

Now that you have become Batman… you must maintain being Batman! According to Thrillest, maintaining Bruce’s Billionaire playboy philanthropist lifestyle would cost approximately $33 million per year. With Bruce being in the Bat game for 20 years this would mean that he would have spent around $660 million just to keep the Batman alive!

If we were to even dive down deeper into Batman’s spending, we have not even touched the idea of the Robo Batsuit which was featured in Batman vs. Superman. With the technology not even developed in today’s world it would almost be impossible to get an accurate estimate on how much this amazing suit would be worth… so we will make an estimate based off of the original Batsuit costing $1.05 million and estimate it at $10 million for the technology, full time staffing of Engineers and all other costs.

To wrap up the question that so many people have been wondering… Bruce Wayne has spent a whopping total of $1,352,450,750 to become and maintain his identity as Batman! Start saving your pennies kids and maybe one day you could be Batman!
