[DC] Has Bruce Wayne ever run out of money?

The man buys a lot for himself, supports several members of the Bat-Family, pours a lot of cash into making Gotham a better place (for all the good it does), and supports the Justice League in a number of ways including paying for all the damage they cause and buying them at least one super-high-tech base. Has there ever been a time when Bruce just plain spent everything he had on all of this, or came close to it?

There have been times in earlier DC continuities when Bruce Wayne has had to pull back on his spending, but that's not quite the same thing as running out of money.

Over the decades, the amount of money Bruce Wayne has had to throw around has significantly increased.   Back in the 1960s, for example, he was only one of a number of millionaires who lived in Gotham City and didn't even qualify for the Forbes top 100 wealthiest men and women in the world.   Back then, his socioeconomic authority came less from how much money he had and more from his aristocratic lineage, such as being the descendent of one of the founders of Gotham City and of a Revolutionary War hero, and from his constant public charity work.
