    The only time we've ever seen her in a situation that suggests she isn't rich is that time she worked at a fast food restaurant.

    Every time we see where she lives, she's living in luxury apartments or the palatial Themiscyran Embassy. In the New 52, she was living in a luxury apartment in London.

    She's always living in some pretty nice digs, so she clearly is able to pay for them somehow. As a princess, she would have access to Themiscyra's resources. If she needs Man's World money? All she has to do is grab a few minor knickknacks from home and sell them to art and antiquity dealers.

    I think it's safe to assume she's rarely hurting for money.
    Though much is taken, much abides; and though
    We are not now that strength which in old days
    Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
    One equal temper of heroic hearts,
    Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
    To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

    But how does she get the money? I'm guessing she markets her name. I mean she did have Diana Prince Id so she worked.

    I thought this thread was about what the Wonder Woman intellectual property was worth in today's marketplace. Hmph.

    Most likely, she sells some small, unimportant artifacts from Themiscyra for a lot of money and then invests that money wisely.

    Yes, or maybe sell off a few gold coins which would net her much in man's world.

    We generally don't see her take anything. So maybe she knows where to find the Amazons artifacts?

    It depends on which version of her origin we're dealing with. In most of her modern origins, she retains the ability to go back to Themiscyra virtually at will. In those scenarios, she can be assumed to have the ability to go back and get things "off camera."

    Now, the movies, obviously, went back to the idea that Diana can't return home and hasn't been home in a century. Earlier WW origins were the same way. In those scenarios, Diana has no choice but to make her way the same way all women do in Man's World: seek employment. In that scenario, she probably isn't rich unless she gets a VERY good job, and with her standard skill set, that's not very likely. As you say, she may quickly rise to wealth if she knows how to locate and recover valuable relics within Man's World.

    It’s hard to tell sometimes. She’s always wearing a coat when she’s not Wonder Woman. But her homes usually do be cool.

    In rebirth, she can't go back and we don't know how she makes her money. I mean the best way would be like her movie job.

    She could’ve packed artifacts before her and Steve left.
