10 Comic Book Hero Solutions To Fix Your Financial Problems

2. Create An External Solution (Spider-Man & Superman)

If people still won't give weight to your presence, there is a more subtle way to make yourself valuable€”create an outside persona that only you hold the solution to! This is more powerful than a corporation and one of the cornerstones of superhero comics, and no heroes remind us of this better than Spider-Man and Superman. Both Peter Parker and Clark Kent live in worlds where money is needed to survive. They both have great powers, but because of their great responsibility, they play by the rules. And even more crucially, despite their great power, nobody really wants to hear much of what their mild-mannered daytime identities have to say. This could just be an error in alter ego decision-making. Nevertheless, if you're also feeling like this and are good at covering your tracks, Clark and Peter are probably good examples for you to emulate. People always say to make your efforts work for you. Now I'm not saying break glass to sell glass, but if you're trying to do good, what's wrong with making a few bucks on the side, and using venues with already-established audiences no less? Of course, the covering your tracks part will take some practice. For Peter, he wears a mask, which makes things infinitely easier, but Clark's performance is a tour de force for the ages and does deserve our pause; he puts on glasses, messes up his hair, and changes his voice and posture to truly remarkable effect. If you can pull any of this off, you'll sooner than later find yourself in an extremely comfortable place. You won't really have to do anything; not sit by the radio or keep your eyes trained on the wires€”the work does itself. If you play your cards right, the money and success will come flooding in like...water I guess, and once you achieve a certain amount of success, your work will decrease, because the perception that comes with success is more powerful than any superhero ability. Not only will you create freedom from debt, but you'll create more free time for things you really enjoy. You may even get to retire that tiresome superhero persona you've created on the side. Yes, it's almost too easy, but it does have its difficulties, whether though villains, a romantically interested co-worker, or a boss hell-bent on exposing your alter ego for the scum he thinks it is. Hey, Kandor wasn't restored in a day. This strategy pays for itself and then some (note: not property damage). Make your fighting for good work for you!
