Wayne's money. Status and wealth are well known aphrodisiacs for women, which makes Star Fox's ability pointless, when wealth can bring that and much more. Wolverine's HF would be cool, but pointless for most of us who face first world problems; we're more concerned with buying groceries and getting jobs, than being mauled or killed.

Lol that'd look epic.You could also make money selling your kidneys. Lots of kidneys. Like every day.
Pain would drive you mad...
Like myself, you're a drinker. Tell me then, did you happen to spend a day in a hospital because of the kidney stones problem exacerbated by excessive drinking? Pain is excruciating and yet I can imagine it's a walk in the park compared to having to regrow that organ.

I'd take Starfox's powers. I don't want to live forever, and mo' money, mo' problems. But being able to smash any chick whenever I wished for the rest of my natural life regardless of my financial status or appearance, as well as basically emotionally con men and women into taking care of me? Sign me up. I'd be roommates with Dania Ramirez and Rosa Acosta by the end of the day, with Bill Gates bankrolling it because I'm his new bestfriend.
With the hf your options seem to be limited to physical activities to generate income. But damn you'd beast whatever physical sport you try considering that you'd be able to train nonstop to build up your body. You'd do naturally what most folks need P.E.D's to do.
You'd start out only being able to do say, 20 pushups. Your muscles then heal faster from the microscopic tears that occur when muscles get bigger and stronger. Before you know it you can blast out 40, then 80 and finally well over 100+ pushups like nothing. Same with any strength/muscle/endurance building exercises. You'll eventually reach your physical limits, but those limits would likely far exceed a normal human.

Not long ago at work a had discussion with someone over that. the whole paper shit would bust your cover in no long time (15-30 years) if you go for another ID card because your current is outdated and other shit. I'm pretty sure a lot of people would call the cops, not necessarily because they think you're immortal simply because they think you're faking IDs and other shit.Unless you decide to live in a 3rd world country time will bust your cover anyways.
Also, counterfeiting legal documents happens, it's just expensive. For high quality ones, at least.

In a RL situation, I'd only take that extremely long lifespan if I was already extremely (and by extremely I mean FILTHY) rich. I'd move to some third world nation and lay low.
Otherwise, Starfox's power is IDEAL for a RW scenario. Even ignoring the whole "I'd befriend billionaires and have thousands of sex slaves" thing, you can actually use that ability to influence global politics. Think of the things he could do in the UN. Can we say "World Peace"?

How long do you think you can get away with doing that?In a RL situation, I'd only take that extremely long lifespan if I was already extremely (and by extremely I mean FILTHY) rich. I'd move to some third world nation and lay low.

It would help that if someone were to catch on eventually they would die, you could have them killed, or you could kill them.
