    @sog7dc: In the first issue, some douchebag blogger asked how Aquaman makes money. Arthur merely replied that he "gets by" and an image was shown of him discovering a treasure chest. And he later walked out while giving a woman two gold coins and told her to put her kids through college.

    He also clearly still owns the lighthouse and property his father managed, so he is more than comfortable.

    @blackwind:

    Oh okay. I was wondering if he was "king of a nation that covers 70% if the earth" rich.

    @sog7dc: He did mention to Vulko he can go and dig up any sunken treasure or valuables he likes. Just think how much certain people would pay for some old ass coin.

    He's plenty rich.

    @ashrym: Considering he has the power to go down to the deepest part of the ocean, I considered him the richest comicbook character. The ocean has lot of buried treasures (includes shipwrecked, sea gold and other minerals that are hard to find). According to NatGeo the sea floor has an estimated $150trillion of metals alone.

    @ashrym: Considering that, I think he is still filthy rich. I dont think that there's a comic issue that elaborates how rich Arthur is?

    @ashrym: Hopefully Johns will able to touch that part on Arthur's life in the Rise of the Seven Kingdoms JL arc.

    I honestly would bet Aquaman could get paid millions just for giving some rich collector a piece of junk he found on the ocean floor.
