|  A fun article with links for "Batman on a budget". Enjoy! In “real” life, Batman probably wouldn’t be able to borrow a Bat-tank from the WayneTech garage, build a cavernous, high-tech lair, or special-order custom codpieces from Taiwan. No, a “real” Batman would probably be some average schmo with a rejection letter from the police academy, anger issues, and a subscription to Guns & Ammo.  ^ I love this quote http://www.greatwhitesnark.com/2007/07/19/you-dont-have-to-be-rich-to-be-batman/  |

| Cool article! (^^)
Interesting to think about what Batman would be on a low budget, and then compare it to what a lot of people have already put into this job. Think of what we could all do with Bruce Wayne's finances put into our job. |

| BatGuy looks like something I'd actually expect in real life. |

- Steamed white rice and black beans make a full protein and it's very cheap.
Also:
1) Make some ramen and drain the broth (no flavor packet) and let the noodles cool 2) Mix a couple or a few eggs together in a separate bowl and add the flavor packet (to the eggs) 2.5) If you want any other spices involved throw it in the mix now 3) Preheat a pan with some oil 4) Add the cooled noodles to the egg mix and stir it for a bit 5) Pour the egg/noodle mix into a pan and cook it like a pancake. Melt some cheese in there if you like. The outer noodles should be a bit crispy when it's finished. Tip) "Like a pancake" means you eventually need to flip it over
Cheap and easy meal! I like to throw some pepper on the finished product.
EDIT: Forgot about Batguy. I've seen it a few times before. Batguy looks a bit cooler than I'd expect him to be. When I think "Batguy" I think of the guys in hockey pads in The Dark Knight. |

| This is getting kind of off-topic, but white rice is not good for you. You at least wanna eat brown. I always eat rice, veggies and eggs. I add a bullion cube, a slice of onion, green onion, garlic powder and garlic paste and about a cup of brown rice. Steam some veggies, scramble some eggs and crumble them on top. Douse the whole thing in soy sauce and teriyaki. Then begin to shovel. Yus. Otherwise I eat cereal or sandwiches that aren't too bad for me.
To stay on topic, yeah I never realized how expensive it would be to do this. Kinda wish I had a job now lol. I've been searching for months. |

| It's not that steamed white rice is bad. It's that it doesn't have as many nutrients as brown rice and, like all foods, should be eaten in moderation. Anyone who has had an iron deficiency or inadequate protein intake due to eating steamed white rice needs to add the black beans that I suggested. Also, anyone getting fat off of white rice isn't using the carbs that white rice gives you. Any other stomach issues associated with white rice that I can think of go back to moderation: don't eat too much!
I didn't recommend brown rice because the majority of my experience is with white rice when it comes to cheap, simple meals that provide a complete protein.
Speaking of such... this is "on-topic" in a sense because Batguy would need plenty of protein and carbs on the cheap to keep fighting crime. |

| I might just have to use that article!
I would add some things though, like sewing hard plastic plates in spots where arteries are exposed, like the thigh, etc. |
