None; Four is plenty. Thanks money god!

>Powers

<Investment

Great for passive return income with no risk or outside involvement. Allows me to invest my dosh and holdings without actually going out on a limb, or even having enough capital to interest a major group. I could just set aside 50$ every day and without any planning, expense, or minimum charge to save up to, it'd give interest. I wish a percentage was listed, but I guess I'll find out over the years! Since this power effects objects, I could buy borderline trash electronics and so forth at thrift prices, and resell them after a year as quality, designer, or like-new equivalents. (IE CRT to flatscreen, old shirt to some kind of overpriced aftermarket Gucci product). The profits would probably make a pretty good amount of cash, maybe enough to pay for basic expenses and still set aside some every month into passive 'investment'.

<Sleepless-Shared

Allows me to be exceedingly productive. I will have to run some tests to see if I can still make muscle gains without adequate sleep. Also gives more time for hobbies, reading, personal projects, and just makes life much easier. Wanna work the graveyard shift, the morning shift, and the evening shift at three different jobs? Wanna start a real estate LLC and manage/purchase duplexes/apartment buildings? Wanna flip houses while also going to a culinary school part time? I can do that. All of that. Simultaneously.

>Perk!

<Wealth Form

This is stupendously fun. Should make my investments better and add extra vim and pep to life- and what a great time it'll be besides!!

My body will be tungsten carbide bonded with polycarbonate resin thermoplastic, mechanically sintered with endothermic gas and hyper-compressed into a limber, nigh-invulnerable composite that presumably heals damage like a human body. My hair will be made entirely of flexible strands of the thermoplastic, transparent and flexible- it'll probably appear white when resting on my head. I weigh about 260 lbs IRL, and by my body mass index that means that I am 7125.52 inches cubed of flesh. Tungsten carbide weighs 0.70 pounds for every cubic inch- meaning that my Wealth Form weighs 4987.864 lbs, or, rounding up to the nearest 1, four thousand nine hundred and eighty eight pounds, roughly twenty times my current weight. This form, easily assumed, has a proportionate strength/weight ratio. I can curl a 50 lb dumbbell with moderate strain- 50x20 is 1000. My wealth form can bicep curl two fucking tons. The little magic trick where I can turn a little pebble or a penny, so on, into gold? -Very charming, and since there's no time limit, I could use it to get a bit of capital to invest with my investment power. I'll use this sparingly, of course, because I don't want to devalue gold. That'd be sad. Oh! And my eyes will be hematite backed, low opacity labradorite spheres. Image related.

End result? Very cool-lookin' unmovable/implacable form, superhero levels of strength, passive investment abilities to improve all aspects of life, lots of free time, more resources, less stress. Wonderful!

Thanks very much, Money God!

I appreciate that. No less, composites and alloys are still considered a single material if properly bonded, which I described in detail, and tungsten carbide is priced at 22.07USD/LB. Granted, not as high as silver (183.94USD/LB) but certainly not as low as say, Iron. I think tungsten if nice, but I didn't want to get grains of myself everywhere when overheated, because, well, who wants metallic dust all over their stuff? So I figured the composite mixture would be most tenable. I don't think I munchkin'd too much, nor do I feel I breached the rules for unfair advantage, simply put I put a lot of customization into it. No less, thank you for your concern, and if the author were to clarify or update in a manner that excluded my choices, I would happily revise.

This was actually well thought-out and pretty based Anon

As for mine-

I won't take any drawbacks only because they all fuck you over more than they're worth compared to the drawbacks of the perks and powers.

Powers-

>Invest with One Chance

At that point it's a free perk and what stops you from buying an extra object from what you already have, and then letting it grow? Even if that's cheesing it too hard I'm not too heartbroken by the premise of having certain items stashed away to grow for a while, for free. Literally no downside, just extra cash/nice shit to add to my net worth.

>Sleepless with Shared Power (-2 credits)

Literally no drawbacks, and I can now make my power team also sleepless.

>Bribe with The Immune

Again, it's a free perk with no downsides. There will always be people who you can't bribe anyway, and plenty of people who you can. Why not take it for slightly more influence? Plus it could come in handy with the hipsters later if any of them start to make a real big fuss. I doubt the sub-1% of those opposed to my fine products are gonna be particularly affluent.

<unless the fact that they're utterly disgusted by my marketing means they have the willpower to not be bribed, in which case still a free perk though

>Manage (-5 credits)

This way I can hire a team of 20 bros for my company and competently lead them, while also improving their skills. 20 skilled workers with a great leader are far more valuable than 100 hired nobodies with some mediocre middle management type.

Perk-

>Advertisement with Hipsters (+3 Credits)

Now here's where the full plan comes to fruition. Me and my team won't focus on the products we sell, rather we'll relentlessly shill for em. I don't really care what we sell, it could be mundane shit like pet rocks and other useless trinkets. Regardless, my general plan would be to make our cheaply mass-produced bullshit into national phenomenons that people would eat right up. As soon as that 1% of hipsters begin to actually get their points across to other people, we release Bullshit 2, an even "better" version of whatever we sold before. The hype generated around this with our supernatural marketing will easily take people's minds off the hipsters and sate the general public until it's time to release Bullshit 3.

TL;DR- I found Apple and get rich with my bros
