Wolverine.
Think about it? You live in the Xavier Institute for free. All of your living expenses are paid for. You get to fight on a team, and not by yourself. You get to meet so many mutants, good and bad. Your parents didn't die in front of you. You don't even remember what the hell happened to you in the past. No shrapnel in your chest. You're not superhero first, then regular life second (Superman, Spider-Man). You're not dirt poor. You are unbreakable, have healing powers, can live longer through and longer than many others out there, and you have claws!
Or you could be Captain Kirk, who lives where there is a federation of planets, everything is free/money is obsolete, and you get all the scattered ass in the galaxy.
