Peter Parker built functional web shooters in his elderly aunt’s basement, along with a belt with his logo on it, which is even more impressive than Tony Stark ‘building this in a cave with a bunch of scraps.’

Peter is a genius, so he could easily build an app—whether it’s a dating app, a game, or something else—and sell it. It happens all the time in the real world, so why doesn’t he just do that?

I get that being Spider-Man is a full-time thing, but if he had a lot of money, or just sold the app and invested the rest, then he could live comfortably and be Spider-Man 24/7.

I know Peter Parker is supposed to be ‘relatable,’ but he’s a genius who could easily make a lot of money—millions, maybe—and he doesn’t even really have to screw anyone over.

“If wealth was the inevitable result of hard work and enterprise, every woman in Africa would be a millionaire."

Because the world isn't a meritocracy.
