well actually chi-chi's father is very rich and probably takes care of all the finances. and didn't Goku win one of the tournaments? that's like ten million zeni right there.

Actually, Chi-Chi's father, ol' Ox-King, isn't that rich anymore--Roshi blew up his mountain by accident, remember?

As for Goku, he actually DIDN'T win any tournaments except for the one vs Piccolo, and at that point he flew off to get married. The tournament prize probably went to charity.

It's implied Goku COULD have money if he really wanted, but doesn't really care about it and would rather just go and fight and have fun. He also has many rich friends (Bulma, Mr. Satan, Roshi, etc.) who would easily bail him out if needed.
 
What about when he was gone for years learning to teleport, or left to train ubuu?
 
Unbelievable

That guy gets a religion but THE KING OF GAMES AND REINCARNATION OF A OLD PHAROAH GETS NOTHING?!??!?

Well...uh...see, he didn't know he could travel that far, and, uh...as for Uub...um, well...

um, well...

What's scary is if this had enough ardent followers/support, and money behind it, it could become a legit religion. There is absolutely no reason to believe Christianity over Gokuism except that Christianity has been around longer.
 
This is a perfectly valid religion.
Goku as a created individual (created by Akira Toriyama and Wu Cheng'en for the Saiyuki :P) represents ideas that can lead to a morally healthy, balanced and good-willed lifestyle. By following that, you are following ideas greater than yourself or Goku itself.
 
I think the son goku character is based on the mythical sun wukong, the monkey king in the ancient chinese folklore and buddhism.

therefore, I demand them renaming the church of goku to the temple of goku.
 
Does anybody else wonder how yamcha and tien are like as powerful as super saiyans by the end of the series, even though they're just humans who we never see do anything? Same for krillin. I think that sea turtle from roshi's place should have a religion instead.

They never are. It's no coincidence they stop having any meaningful participation in the big battles the moment Vegetta becomes "part" of the team.

So basically any shonen protagonist should get a religion?
