"Yeah, he's living in teacher dorms at the start, not Stately Wayne Manor."

Going from the dorms to suddenly getting an apartment (and especially the real estate agent being all 'I have a better one for someone like you' - presumably a more expensive one) made me wonder how much money he really has, but yeah, if anything he probably has saved a lot by just not buying much of anything ever.
