He's not "just super rich" though. He is entirely the product of hard work and dedication to a goal. I'm actually struggling to think of a real "power of money" character. Even wealthy technologists in comics tend to be geniuses capable of and often being first generation gazillionaires. The Fantastic Four for instance were even in a place to receive their powers by being the cream of the crop and being chosen on merit to be deep-space explorers. If op got what he wanted he would just cry harder at half a century of even more extreme power creep in storytelling as the result of "training" and stake raising as the power scale only goes up.
