Alfred is instrumental to Batmans success as a crime fighter and serves as his closest confidante and a surrogate father figure, but unlike the Robins, Commissioner Gordon or Barbara, Alfred is paid.

This raises the question, how exactly does one stat Batman in regards to his loyal buttler when regardless of his special set of skills it doesn't take much imagination to envision such an incredibly wealthy individual obtaining such good help. Batman having at least Multimillionaire 4 and all.

The question is two fold.
1. With just a plain reading of the rules what would you as a GM have a Batman PC do to obtain his Alfred?
2. As a GM what would you ultimately decide regardless of a strict interpretation of the rules?
