millionaires for this list we’re looking
at good guys bad guys and even
superheroes on the silver screen that
have acquired or already possess great
wealth we’re excluding gangsters like
Michael Corleone a-and people who have
not yet become millionaires in their
films in question like Mark Zuckerberg
in the social network I know you’ve done
your homework and so you know that money
isn’t a big part of my life but at the
moment I could buy now to burn Street
take the Phoenix club and turn it into
my ping-pong room number 10 Lex Luthor
Superman franchise my attorney will be
in touch with you about the damage to
the door oh just take the gentleman
escape money might not be the root of
all evil but in the case of this bad guy
it certainly helps him in his efforts to
achieve world domination and kill his
nemesis who is none other than the Man
of Steel how do you choose to
congratulate the greatest criminal mind
of our time huh you tell me that I’m
brilliant oh no no no that would be too
obvious uh I grant you this clever
villain is interesting because of his
dual nature using his wealth to keep
others from noticing his treacherous
plans Lex Luthor purchases the public’s
approval by donating to charities and
helping improve some aspects of life in
the city of Metropolis he didn’t see
from such humble beginnings how I’ve
created this Empire interestingly his
money and schemes always seem to revolve
around acquiring real estate at least on
the big screen now call me foolish call
me irresponsible it occurs to me that
I’m 500 Megaton bomb planted at just the
proper point would would destroy most of
California number nine Oliver Warbucks
Annie I don’t like it send it back any
messages for any kid who ever wished
that he or she would be taken in and
spoiled by a rich father figure Daddy
Warbucks represents this dream come true
I’m a businessman I’ll have money I’ll
have power out of capitalism I do not
now and never will have children this
workaholic overcame a tragic
and persevered until he became a
zillionaire by the time I was 21 Knight
made my first million next ten years I
turned that into a hundred million Wow
hmm those days that was a lot of money
however his focus on industry keeps him
from having a family with his secretary
who fills the void by taking in the
orphaned Annie
watch this is Annie sir this is the
orphan who will be staying with us for a
week Warbucks eventually becomes
captivated by the redheaded orphan and
resolved to help her whenever she needs
it which is what made him such a popular
zillionaire with movie fans
I love you daddy warbucks number eight
Charles Foster Kane Citizen Kane take my
word for it there is perhaps no
character who better exemplifies the old
saying money can’t buy happiness then
Kane there’s only one person in the
world to decide what I’m gonna do and
that’s me he’s had great wealth ever
since his late childhood and has earned
even more money through his ownership of
a newspaper garter that’s one of the
things gonna have to be changed around
here the news goes on but 24 hours a day
Cades money and control of the media
have allowed him to attain political
power and influence as well but he still
spent most of his life in misery
in every venture aside from the
acquisition of wealth success has eluded
him making his an unforgettable
cautionary tale you’re right mr.
Thatcher I did lose a million dollars
last year I expect to lose a million
dollars this year I expect to lose a
million dollars next year you know mr.
Thatcher at the rate of a million
dollars a year I’ll have to close this
place in 60 years
number seven John Hammond Jurassic Park
and see that Myia 50,000 a year has been
well spent if you longed to live during
the days when dinosaurs walked the earth
a lot of extra cash definitely comes in
handy welcome
to Jurassic without ample funds to buy
acreage on a tropical island and hire a
team of the best genetic scientists this
eccentric bioengineering company CEO
would have never been able to bring his
park and its cloned prehistoric
inhabitants to life this park was not no
Decatur only for the super-rich everyone
in the world has the right to enjoy
these acts sure hey well Hammond earns
his place on this list by attempting to
live out the fantasy of every kid who is
ever crazy about dinosaurs and as a
billionaire who spared no expense along
the way shine number six Arthur Bach
Arthur how rich are you oh I can tell
you is I wish I have a dime for every
time I have what he lacks in maturity he
more than makes up for in dollars much
like Peter Pan this wealthy character
doesn’t want to grow up especially if
growing up means he has to stop drinking
to excess and to get married to a woman
he doesn’t actually love Chris has a
good time with you other millionaire
drunk playboy but Arthur is expected to
do both if he wants to receive his
inheritance which will enable him to
keep his fortune and maintain his
millionaire lifestyle I cry for white
billions of money for you he’s so much
fun to watch that you can’t help but
root for him at least if he’s portrayed
by Dudley Moore in the 80s version go to
each one the one who drinks huh how does
this yield to have all that money
great number five Jordan Belfort the
wolf of Wall Street
the wolf of Wall Street they call me
look what’s more alarming than a
fictional character that defraud his
company’s investors and spends his spare
time and his customers money partying
and doing drugs a real person who does
those things you’ll be ferocious
you’d be relentless telephone this movie
and it’s millionaire bad guy were based
on a memoir by the real Jordan Belfort
stockbroker Stockton he’ll and it
doesn’t hurt that Leonardo DiCaprio who
was cast as Belfort has proven expertise
in playing real men with lots of money
we had literally a clone of money in
2004 he portrayed the eccentric and
extremely rich Howard Hughes in the
aviator I don’t know if you remember me

roles earned him an Oscar nod for Best
Actor though you know you didn’t win I
chose the crap out of my pocket look a
year’s salary right here fun coupons
number for Tony Stark
Marvel Cinematic Universe

a reason to panic unless of course you
happen to be a genius who owns a weapon
manufacturing company like Stark
Industries
you planned a report on the millions
we’ve saved by advancing medical
technology or kept from starvation with
our Intel across all those breakthroughs
military funding honey in that case you
can just build a customized suit of
armor to ensure your survival as an
added bonus the same suit of armor can
be used to help its wearer become a
superhero and keep the world safe
oh man that’s kind of catchy it’s got a
nice ring to it I mean it’s not
technically after the sheets of gold
titanium alloy but it’s kind of
evocative the amateur unlike some of the
other insanely wealthy superheroes Tony
Stark also has a busy love life and a
few personal flaws that keep him
entertaining and real big man in a suit
of armor take that off what are you
genius billionaire playboy

number two Bruce Wayne the Batman
franchise were you oh sorry Bruce Wayne
although the man behind Batman might
still be able to fight crime and save
the world from bad guys like the Joker
without being extremely rich he probably
wouldn’t be able to have a cool car like
the Batmobile to drive or have fancy
gadgets to use while he’s doing it the
car right chicks love the car
like all good superheroes though there’s
much more to Bruce Wayne than just money
a fancy car and spandex my parents to
serve justice he doles out justice to
avenge the murder of his parents who
were killed while he was young proving
he also has a strong moral compass which
he uses despite his lack of superpowers
to implement his sense of justice these
things begged a question as to what
exactly does Bruce Wayne do with his
time and his money ah
