WhoWould you rather be...Tony Stark or Peter Parker?
I just read that if Stan Lee had a choice to be any superhero he would choose to be Tony Stark. Although I was certain he would've chosen Pete. But anyway who would you rather be...this includes their alter egos. To be honest, i really can't choose between the two. Stark got the billionaire, genius, playboy, and philanthropist thing going for him and Pete's a genius, dates a supermodel, and has cool powers.

I don't know why some of you are going on about being right and winning. Rob and Impediment were in on this gag because I PMed them. Silent and Rao PMed me and figured I changed the post. I highly doubt anybody thought Quan made the post, but simply played along just for the lulz.
Peters personal life is crap, he gets little to no respect as a superhero and despite his powers and how 'awesome' they might be his rogue gallery is ridiculous. Serious Hate flows in the marvel U for spiderman.
I'd go with stark. Money, women, brains and a tech wonderland. Armors that can do whatever you what or need them to. Fame. TRUE avenger status and all the respect that comes with it.
It's you as the character. You're not forced to act like either one.
So, for example, you all realize that spider-sense alone could make you a billionaire by next week, yes?
I also assume you don't automatically inherit their intelligence, so Pete's powers are arguably much more useful than tech you'd have no idea how to create or repair. Even if you retain their intelligence, which I suppose is advantage Stark (Pete's no slouch there though), this is MUCH closer than people think.
The word 'genius' was thrown around in OP for both characters set of attributes to be taken so I'd assume if I pick Tony I can build whatever he can build, same goes for spidey and his gadgets.
Then there's an edge to Stark in the tech department. I'd still become a (steady) billionaire as Pete and build tech that could near-rival Tony's, all while having Spider powers and ~15 more years of my life due to youth.
He's got a movie coming out so everyone's imagining themselves as him. It's ok, I get it.
Make this thread a day after the next SM movie comes out. It'll be a giant thread of people going "I should really pick Stark, but man, it would just be so cool to be Spider-Man. I have to go with Pete all the way."
True story. Don't try to deny it. Just accept it. I'll be gentle going in....
I think if Peter could fly, he'd be way funner to cruise around as.
Though, as it is right now, I'm not sure.
Being Tony would be a lot safer, also sex, but I like that Parker's powers are always on and a lot less ridiculous for use in the real world.
Though the tank who has sex with his billions (or something in that order) would probably edge it for me. Though it is tempting to say Pete. But I wouldn't want any part of his life.
