Watching Mickey mouse clubhouse and Goofy wants to be a superhero and be able to fly and have super strength. That's all good and nice but does it pay the bills. So I'm trying to figure out the legal financial viability of super powers.

Flight is pretty easy I think. High speed delivery service especially in the offshore oil business. A hot shot if you will. 5-10 deliveries/day at $10k/trip. A lot cheaper than sending a boat.

What about some others. Remember, LEGAL...

Strength
Invisibility
X-Ray vision
Others?

I mean, everybody wants super powers. But nobody wants to grind out a 9-5 while being able to read Short Circuit style...

Even superman had to grind it out. A truly quick buck is rarely legal, and much less so if you had super powers to help.

Apparently very little.

Spiderman had to scrape a living taking pics of himself

You could easily make a legal living being a spy or killing terrorists for the government like in the beginning of the first Wolverine movie, or you could just be evil and rob banks.

Seriously. No reason why Spider-Man couldn't just play NBA, NFL, MLB. Retire after a few years, or play longer and make Hall of Fame in all three.

Batman wouldn't make any pro team. That's how useless he is

Why would a super hero be a high speed delivery boy?

Legality has no place in a lawless government. Much less a comic book universe (or any). With that said, the ability to read minds is vastly superior to all listed in the OP. Only one that's better would be Mind control.
