How much money do you think Superman could make if he offered his services to NASA as a launch vehicle?

  Canonically, Superman could be a billionaire overnight. There are literally tons of New World gold at the bottom of the Atlantic, lost to storms during the days of the Spanish and Portuguese Empires.

  Additionally, he still has the spaceship that carried him to Earth. A single ‘transistor’ would be worth as much as Microsoft or Apple.

    For the sunken treasure, I’d imagine Aquaman has dibs.

      I imagine if Superman wanted it, Aquaman would just say, okay buddy.

  $0. Because first and foremost, he is a goodie-two-shoes who wouldn't charge for it. And even if he was willing to charge, doing so would mean compromising his secret identity.

    I think that’s the point of the “if” in the question

  At least $10.

  A lot, but Superman wouldn’t charge them for it, being a superhero and all.

    I mean, but think of all of the money he could make for charity. Superman Launch Services, saves you billions in exchange for millions, a 100% not-for-profit organization.

    Being Superman in particular. There are plenty of ‘superheroes’ who are far less scrupulous.
