Powers this is no contest.... Logan was hundreds of years old and the body of middle aged man.

His healing protected him from more than injury, but disease and aging as well.

I guess you could put a ton of money in a bank then go out in the wilderness and kill animals to eat.
Since you gonna heal, can fight bears and stuff.

Then 50 years later you draw put your account cause of compound interest but you are still young.

Actually, now that I think about it

There is an easy low pain path to this wealth with the power.

Step 1: go on america's got talent

Step 2: cut off your arm

Step 3: regrow

Step 4: become a famous show man

Ofc cutting of arm would hurt so maybe find better thing to do.

Maybe draw smiley faces on your gut with scalpel.
Youd be kicked off the show as soon you cut off your arm because they cant show something graphic like that on tv.

No it wouldnt.

The government would never forget and would always want to exploit you.
The government would only be able to fuck with you if they're able to grab you without anyone noticing, if you were to secretly go to a doctor to figure out what was up without telling someone. You going public as "real life Wolverine" would make you pretty much immune. Also, if you're donating samples, there's not much reason they'd have to grab you. It might put you at risk of being kidnapped by a foreign power, but donating overseas would likely negate that as well.


There are countries out there that don't give a fuck about the law if immortality is at stake, specially when they can "deny" they did anything.

You would be instantly banned after a single blood test.

There's realistically no sure-proof way to become millionaire (let alone 50 million) that wouldn't involve tons of pain and risks. Also people confusing super healing and super strength with immortality.

He ain't immortal.


And how exactly would you be banned from a blood test?

By finding you in perfect health?

Mutations don't even show up as greatly unusual on regular medical exams. Remember that most mutants don't find out what they are until they are teenagers, which means they went through years of medical exams.

He isn't immortal but he sure lives for a long time.

And Wolverine does have super strength, his healing factor keeps his body in the best shape it can be, so he's peak human except he can also constantly overtax his muscles and rely on his healing factor to help him.

They dont find out that theyre mytants until theyre teenagers because their x-gene isnt active until then. If you have his powers then that means that your x-gene is active. When the doctors look at your blood theyre going to see that weird gene that nobody else on the planet has and theyll want to know more. Plus your cells would probably have to regenerate at at a crazy fast rate in order to heal you like Wolverine and theres no way that they wouldnt notice that

The last time you thought you were getting fat and thought about working out because of it?

Scared of getting tetanus or how about an STD?

I can't believe people don't see the benefits of his powers.

The claws are relatively useless, but his other powers are all fantastic even for a normal person.

Yes. Good thing no mutants were born in the modern day where medical tests are common.

Feline_Heart posted...

Untrue. Many mutants already had genetic stuff active before then, their active control of mutations simply activates in times of stress (which is typically puberty in the modern day)

Wolverine already had his claws as an infant, Nightcrawler was already blue, Storm had white hair.

They don't though, not in the Marvel universe, so it shouldn't be carried over into this.

Regular real people have mutations all the time, look up different cases of mutating even in the same family.

How would they notice your cells regenerating, the effect stops once it leaves his body. It's not like Wolverine's dismembered body parts regrow into full Wolverines.

It's ridiculous that people think "the government" is going to kidnap you and lock you in a secret lab. In real life, they don't have labs built to experiment on super mutants because super powered mutants don't exist.

Like yeah, if you live rural China or Siberia and the local government finds you then you'd be in trouble. If you live in the US you just pay a visit to Johns Hopkins then start helping them with completely above the board research. You have a few articles online written about you, people meme about how you're a real life Logan, then you continue your life with regular appointments and tissue donations that might help cure horrible diseases.

If it's the strongest version of Wolverine's powers, that's:

Near immortality (the admantium is thought to have dramatically lowered his life span and we wouldn't have it).
Healing back from more or less any injury.
Immunity to illness.
Immunity to poisons.
Peak physical conditioning and then some because of the ability to regenerate tissue rapidly.
Heightened senses and reflexes.

If that's the version on offer, powers all day long.

Certainly possible. I just think that the odds are greater that I'll get more of a benefit out of the money than living forever. Hell, as sci-fi nerds we should know that immortality isn't all it's cracked up to be anyways. Friends/loved ones dying off, boredom, depression/suicidal thoughts, etc.

Elective surgery is actually fairly risky snd not very effective when it comes to weight loss

Not mention 50 mill doesnt go as far as one would think. If you start just 1 business you can easily burn through that pretty quickly

Thats why i say the powers a priceless. Most billionaires would pay to have them.

You would have to be HORRIBLE at business to run through that much money on just 1 business. And why start a company to begin with? You can invest and live off the interest alone.

Thats why i say the powers a priceless. Most billionaires would pay to have them
I doubt "most" would give up all of their fortunes for it. The narcissists/selfish ones, sure.

Wolverine's powers would be a complete waste in the real world. I can't believe it's in the lead smh


There are things that money can't solve, so that is why I choose power. Heck with an extended life span imagine all the more time to achieve goals and dreams.

Money can't buy skills, they have to be earned which is something power would help.

What skill would you need immortality to learn? Skills take time. The reason most people don't have said time is due to having to work for a living and other duties that money absolutely WILL solve.

And what things are you LIKELY to encounter in real life that $50 million dollars couldn't solve or at least vastly improve upon?
