Superman is broke his Mom and Dad even almost lost their farm many times.
Batman is beyond rich.
Plus I rather be a rich orphan with the will to make sure no kid ever loses their parents like he lost his than a broke orphan who is from a dead planet and is now the only living person from his planet. Well other than his cousin and a few bad guys. And the only image I have of my parents is a hologram of my Dad and he is cold and only talks of how to help me but nothing of his love of me.
While Batman knew his parents loved him and had time to look back at to remember them.
So yeah I will gladly fall back asleep so I can be Batman.
Superman may have real powers but I rather spend my days in my mansion with my Butler and remember the love my parents gave me everyday than feel totally and utterly alone while sitting behind a desk of a dying newspaper.
Superman isn't rich like Bruce Wayne, but he's not broke either. He's working class, and even though he's an all powerful demigod, he has more in common with Joe Schmoe on the street than Batman does. Clark Kent goes to work every day and actually sees what happens in his city, as opposed to just fighting it.

Y'all know as Superman you can just steal shit with no consequence right
Yeah Batman would be all like "Blam-o I got rock-o!" and hit Superman with a glove made from kryptonite. Superman would be knocked on his ass. You know Batman has a jail cell made of the stuff ready if Superman goes rogue.
@pripyatplatypus true Superman is a hard average Joe worker but the thing I was trying to say was he is all alone he truly is an alien to all of us. Yeah he has a cousin and handful of villians that came from his planet. But imagine being the only person alive left from your small little home town. And you left it as a baby. So you don't have any clue what it was like being there or anything about the people from there because even the town is completely gone. As if it never existed. I would feel totally lost of who I am.
Batman may be an orphan with some mental issues regrading how to grieve. But hay at least I can soften the blow with the cash and that I still have my Butler who is like a father to me.
Also Superman may be able to do more to help the world with his powers but Batman can help with his money as well. Like set up hospitals and charities to help the needy. He does this alot actually he always is supporting some charity or other.
No, seriously though... Batman can take out Superman damn near anytime he wants. He's literally the only being capable of doing it and it was forced upon him just because of his own nature and the fact Superman is so fucking powerful. It's a literal writer's block. Batman does what Batman does only because Batman can do what Batman does.
I get the methods Batman would supposedly use to take out Superman, but I mean, realistically, you piss the guy off enough he could level an entire continent. I'm not going by convoluted storylines here, just the basic long-term premises of the characters. The only thing that keeps Batman, or anyone alive, is Superman's good side. If Superman stays good then there's no reason for Batman to come after him. If Superman truly goes bad, well that's it really.
that's why it's a writer's block; and actually, Batman technically does have a contingency for when Superman goes bad, but even that is still just a writer's block... albeit a heavier one.
Why has it not occurred to anyone to be superman, and pretend to be human like he does with Clark Kent, but use only a little bit of your powers to convince people you're the greatest athlete alive? You could be the fastest runner, the highest jumper, the strongest weight-lifter. You could simultaneously be the world's greatest basketball player and the world's greatest football player and make more money than Bruce Wayne ever had.
I'd prefer to be Batman just so I could show up at my HS in basketball practice and be like "yo coach! and give him some shoes.... but dressed as the real batman, as he gave me the nickname of "Batman" because of my Vince Carter alien shoes. It would be a joke worthy.
