In most vampire fiction, vampires tend to be filthy rich or at least comfortably loaded. It's presumed that over the years they've managed to save/squirrel away money so that they can have a comfortable lifestyle, plenty of security so nobody comes in and stakes them in their sleep, and a fabulous wardrobe. Some certainly look like the [[Rich Idiot With No Day Job]], others may be [[Non -Idle Rich]] and manage to be financially enterprising. Generally [[Justified Trope|justified]] in that the vamp is hundreds of years old, and thus has had plenty of time to accrue his wealth. Being technically dead also saves several bills, as there's no need to buy food, water, insurance, you get the idea. Tropologically, it's probably to do with vampires being aristocrats [[Classical Movie Vampire|going back to Count Dracula]].
 
Vampires made in recent years, however, may not fall into this trope due to lack of savings, and may end up having to work nights at the Quik-E-Mart in order to pay for a dark enough apartment to sleep in.
