As a beloved character, Bruce Wayne has a ridiculous horde of wealth of literally untold amounts. Back when I came out of college with them Science degrees, garnering more wealth to end the days of living off of granola bars and noodles as you rush from class to class really sits at the top of your mind. Looking at Bruce Wayne, however, we come to a guy who has a bit of a silver spoon in his mouth, a spoon used for justice and goodwill. Today, we're figuring out just how big that silver spoon really is. To figure out Bruce Wayne or Batman's wealth, we have quite a few things we need to look at, and I mean this guy owns a ton of stuff. The way to truly, truly measure just how wealthy someone actually is is to define that individual's net worth, net worth being the final combined cash value of every dollar bill and asset, being house, car, hotel, and virtually everything that individual owns that could be converted into cash, minus that person's outstanding debts or loans. Otherwise

known as liabilities. Together, these two numbers give you the total cash value or net worth of an individual. So, what is Batman's total net worth? To answer this question, we dive deeper into the world of both waving your credit card around at every hotel and bank you want to buy in a whim and owning military-grade equipment to fight a one-man war on crime. Starting with what could be the two biggest items on Bruce Wayne's list of assets, we arrive at both his inherited family's mansion located on the outskirts of Gotham and the rather massive lair located underneath his house known as the Batcave. Wayne Manor itself is estimated to be somewhere in the tens of millions, depending on what iteration of the house we look at. The Dark Knight trilogy, for instance, used the Elizabethan-style country house located in Nottingham, England, known as Wollaton Hall, to act as its Wayne Manor. Back in the day when it was built, being 1588, Wollaton Hall took approximately eight years to build, costing a total of 80,000 pounds, or now 89,000 US dollars.

to construct adjusting for inflation. That means this version of Wayne Manor today would cost 27 and a half million pounds, or otherwise 30 and a half million US Dollars. However, realtor companies have estimated its total home buying value at costing over 128 million dollars, seeing how this estate after being outfitted with modern plumbing and other conveniences, as well as secret rooms, and since it also sits on an additional 500 acres of land, having its very own herd of deer and River to shoot your bathing boat out of. As iconic as this filming location was for the trilogy, I would rather look at something a little closer to Batman's original Canon. And this hunt brings us to one of the only known blueprints for Batman's enormous crib, being a rather extensive blueprint shown from Wayne Manor in a DC comic book from 1986 that also licensed Batman. And these rather impressive floor plans out to Mayfair games as part of the DC heroes role-playing game. Mayfair later released the Batman Source book, which included the blueprints and floor plans of both

Wayne Manor and the Wayne Foundation bill moving as well as his Penthouse apartment, each with its own private underground Batcave layer. After taking a fine-tooth comb to these lengthy plans, we can see that Wayne Manor rests at exactly 28,125 square feet across three floors, contains 12 bedrooms, five and a half bathrooms, and 41 and a half total rooms. Among these rooms includes a private gym, library, bar, parlor, ballroom, pool, multiple elevators, storage areas, offices, and many fireplaces with hearths for late-night thinking sessions. To find the real-life price tag of this Mega Mansion, we have to know where, or at least the real-life equivalent of where Wayne Manor exists. When Batman was first released, the Creator Bob Kane envisioned Batman as crusading around the streets of New York City, but later reimagined New York City as a more discreet fictional city that he called Gotham, after picking up a phone book and turning to a random page. So, shout out to Gotham Jewelers for giving us the name.

but what Gotham City is a stylized version of the Big Apple in the fictional world. It is geographically located across the river from New York City, just as New Jersey or Jersey City is, which is where Gotham City is said to rest. But to keep everything even between Batman living in a now reimagined New York City or a fictional city near the Big Apple, we can take the median average price per square foot between the two and find it to be around one thousand four hundred dollars per square foot of space. Taking this number and calculating it with the price of Batman's beefy home, we find his home to be listed around 39 million three hundred and seventy-five thousand dollars. Then underneath this Mammoth house, we have the state-of-the-art Batcave, and this is where things really kick up a notch. When comparing the cost of everything included in the Bat Cave to whatever real-life equivalents they have, and thanks to people like technology consultant and author Thaddeus Howes, the overall price

of the Batcave itself, including the cost of hollowing out and reinforcing it, installing an insanely overpriced supercomputer priced at 50 million dollars, thanks from Alfred in the Animated Universe, building and installing the batmobile's turntable, that plane elevator, and Hangar Docking Bay for the batboat, hidden doors, reinforced security system, another gym, forensic Laboratories, personal Museum, power room, gun ranges, maintenance, and medical facilities, bribing of workers, and a really cool washroom, has been estimated to cost upwards to 560 million dollars, for a grand total of nearly 600 million dollars for Bruce's facilities alone. But what about all the things that go inside of the bat cave? What do things like the bat suit, has walking armored suit, and plane cost? Starting with the iconic bat suit, his sometime bullet and fireproof Cape that allows him to glide through the air is made out of a special polymer memory cloth that becomes semi-rigid after an electric current runs through it, costing an estimated forty thousand dollars. The

suit itself, while changing over the years, has in some of its latest iterations been made out of a special titanium-dipped Trivium fiber, meaning the fibers that are designed to withstand compressive, tensile, and shear stress coming from any direction have also been dipped in molten titanium. Whether or not you could actually dip fibers into molten metal that's over 1,668 degrees Celsius is another question, but this means that his body's suit would easily cost at least an estimated one million dollars, well over the 300,000 of his purely Kevlar suit cost him. But that being said, the most pricely estimated part of the suit itself is his custom bulletproof cow, complete with its own taser security system, knockout gas, radio antennas, is lined with lead, and has its own built-in echolocation feature that allows him to see the surrounding environment. Seeing how it's either made out of the same titanium that fibers or his usual Kevlar, this fantasy-driven cow has been estimated to cost 1 million dollars alone, giving his

Decked Out suit a combined value of two million dollars. And then we come to one of Batman's sweetest vehicles, the Batmobile. The mobile has had many iterations over the years, from Adam West's fifteen-thousand-dollar Lincoln Futura Batmobile that today would cost roughly 140,000 to build, all the way to the tumbler and other armored Batmobiles, some of which, to my personal delight, can't transform from a super-powered car straight into, of course, a non-lethal tank, each costing Bruce Wayne around an estimated 18 to 30 million dollars, that last number of course being for the transforming tank. His iconic motorcycle costs at the very least 1.5 million dollars, while the mini gadgets and other gizmos that he throws at his enemies run around four hundred thousand dollars. But the maybe not so surprisingly most expensive vehicle in his arsenal is the batwing, with many of the custom-made flying planes that are capable of hovering, performing vertical takeoffs, and carrying heavy loads costing Bruce

upwards of 60 million dollars for a total of around 92 million and four hundred thousand dollars for all of his equipment. But if you thought that all of these costly items were Batman's greatest assets when it comes to his total net worth, then you might want to think again. This is where we come to something that completely and utterly dwarfs all of Bruce Wayne's combined assets, house and backhave included. If he were to turn everything he owns in the world into cash and leave for the Bahamas, I'm of course talking about his sharehold in the ridiculously wealthy company known as Wayne Enterprises. Before I go into the over-the-top things that this company owns and is doing across many different fields, from Aerospace to owning and producing a large portion of the United States steel industry, giving it a behemoth price tag in terms of its net worth, we first need to go over a couple of things, namely how much of Wayne Enterprises does Bruce actually own if the company were to suddenly liquidize all of its assets.

liquidize, being a term that means whenever a company turns all of its assets into Cold Hard Cash, thus bringing the business to an end. To own part of a company means that you are a shareholder and thus have bought and owned shares or a certain percent image of a company, giving you a personal stake in how well that company does, with a single share in a company having a certain cash value, otherwise known as Equity, depending on how well that company is doing or its overall net worth if you were to again minus its assets from its liabilities. So, the question here is, what sharehold of Wayne Enterprises does Bruce own, and if the company was to liquidize its net worth in cash, what share of the resulting cash pie would he receive? In Batman Begins, we see one of the only times that Bruce's share ownership of Wayne Enterprises is ever mentioned when the company decides to go public after announcing him dead from the many years he was traveling the world. Going public means that a formerly privately owned company is now selling shares of its

company to the larger public, usually in hopes of quickly raising the company's capital or otherwise wealth in the hopes of transforming, or in this case, expanding the business. What this means for Bruce is that in order to retain control of his company and keep his family name on the building, he would have to buy a significant portion of the shares as soon as they went public, which he immediately does. In order for him to be the primary owner, the percentage of shares he owns would need to be at least 51. So, assuming Bruce owns at least 51 percent of his company, how much is Wayne Enterprises actually worth? And this number is pretty ludicrous, almost as ludicrous as someone like me spending hours researching housing prices, business terms, and telling how much the most wealthy businesses on the planet are worth to figure out what goes into someone's net worth, like billionaire Bruce Wayne. So, Wayne Enterprises, a company that if it ever existed would see that every human on the planet had something it made inside their home, because this company would definitely be the largest company in the real world.

having 17 different branches, all of which are top-performing players in what they do, ranging from Wayne shipping, that's the largest shipping company in the world, to Wayne electronics, that manufactures and sells all manner of electronic devices, to Wayne Tech, that studies new technologies including alien Tech, to Wayne biotech, Wayne foods that functions like a modern Walmart, Wayne steel that holds many government contracts, to Wayne shipbuilding, Aerospace, chemicals, medical, and entertainment, many of which also run as free-to-consumer facilities like Wayne's many hospitals and Food Services because he's such a great guy. Calculating the cost of a fictional company or any company of this magnitude is no easy task. Even common numbers you see thrown around on the internet and other places for a company that has its hand in so many cookie jars seem to range from 20 billion all the way up to half of the United States GDP, which currently sets at 21 trillion dollars. Man, I'm not getting much help there, so to get a more realistic ballpark answer, we can compare Wayne Enterprises to

similar top real-life companies, with companies like Walmart sitting at the number one spot, being worth 576 billion, while Amazon sits at a whopping 486 billion. Adding in the estimated worth of similar companies for each of its many research and manufacturing branches, we find that Wayne Enterprises as a whole is worth somewhere around 600 billion dollars, and Bruce Wayne, having a 51% stake, has a share valued at 306 billion dollars. And before I give you Bruce's total net worth number, you might be thinking, What about the many hotels, banks, and restaurants this guy buys on a whim? At this point, these things are really a drop in the bucket for him. The phrase, If Bill Gates stopped to pick up a five-dollar bill, he'd lose one million dollars wasting the time, comes to mind because Bruce literally made more money than the time it took him to write the check to buy these places. But we can certainly throw in a few extra 10 to 50 million into the total pot. So now, adding together every asset Bruce owns and

turning it into the cold hard cash it's worth. We find that Bruce Wayne's net worth is 306 billion 700 million and four hundred thousand dollars. But if none of this was very interesting, then I saved my most interesting detail for last. The only real overarching currency we all have in this life is time, with Bruce having spent at least one million dollars over a decade on his education and physical training, making him one really strong guy whose exact strength numbers for things like his bench press we go over in this video. See you in the next one.
