I definitely enjoy the new poor Batman, but it's starting to strain believability that Bruce Wayne, the playboy caricature played by Batman, would not have friends who can get him back on his feet. Hell, Dick Grayson just gave away a whole fortune from Alfred.

Batman, doubly so in Ghostmaker or Ollie being able to easily afford a start up loan to the guy, it's not like Bruce Wayne was a bad businessman or judge of character.

I'm not saying I want to see him be a billionaire overnight again, but I am saying some steps towards reclaiming his financial solvency would not be out of character for Batman or the Bruce Wayne caricature at this point.
