In his secret identity,
Batman is
Bruce Wayne, a billionaire businessman who lives in
Gotham City. To the world at large,
Bruce Wayne is often seen as an irresponsible, superficial playboy who lives off his family's personal fortune and the profits of Wayne Enterprises, a major private technology firm that he inherits. However, Wayne is also known for his contributions to charity, notably through his Wayne Foundation charity. Bruce creates the playboy public persona to aid in throwing off suspicion of his secret identity, often acting dim-witted and self-absorbed to further the act.
