If I could fly I'd open my own window-washing business. No one would be able to compete with me and everyone would want to hire me. I'd make a bundle!!

What are some non-noble things you might do with super powers?

I could start a laser etching business is I had optic blasts.

If I had a hypnotic voice I could take the title of Man with a Golden Voice to all new levels. Think about how many boxes of macaroni and cheese I could move!

If I was a technomancer I would be the Geek Squad employee of the month for sure.

You snipe me on an EBay auction? Try to snipe me when I can move at the speed of sound, motherfucker!

It would be interesting to see what would happen with someone's power to never need sleep again(Before the madness set in?).

There's really only one superhuman power that would have any real world application, and that's super-intelligence.

With super-intellect, I could figure out how to make cold-fusion work, or create quantum computers, or cure cancer.

I could become a billionaire and help humanity in the process. It's a win-win deal in my opinion.

That and the chances of you being kidnapped in the middle of the night and getting dissected by the government are much less likely with that sort of discreet power.

Superspeed could work as a mass transit engine, power generator or courier.

The aforementioned flying window washer and the laser etching.

Many would actually have real world applications, it's just that super intelligence is the most ready to apply(Most boring?).
