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 Idle Rich aristocrat, others may be Non-Idle Rich and manage to be financially enterprising. Generally justified in that the vamp is hundreds of years old, and thus has had plenty of time to accrue his wealth (and invest it via The Slow Path version of a Compound-Interest Time Travel Gambit). Being technically dead also saves several bills, as there's no need to buy food, water, health insurance, you get the idea.
Tropologically, it's probably to do with vampires being decadent aristocrats going back to
at least Lord Ruthven. Both tropes play on the symbolic connection between literal blood-sucking and the parasitic way of life of a real-life idle class which does not support itself by its own efforts, but by exploiting other people.
Ever since Anne Rice repopularized them, vampires are more likely to play with this in modern stories. They might be Impoverished Patricians struggling to adapt to the modern age (again paralleling history) and so Reduced To Rat Burgers. On the other hand, they could be an otherwise Average Joe working nights at the Quik-E-Mart in order to pay for a dark enough apartment to sleep in.
Undead Tax Exemption may factor in here.
See also Vampires Own Night Clubs. If they eat both flesh and blood, they’re also High-Class Cannibals. Contrast Working-Class Werewolves.

Blood Books (and the TV adaptation Blood Ties (2007)): Henry Fitzroy is an aversion: he writes for a living. There's a Lampshade Hanging in the first book where Vicki asks why he has to work, and he says something like, "Oh, sure, I could have bought IBM for pennies back in nineteen-oh-something, but who knew? I'm a vampire, not clairvoyant." He also points out that there is a reason for a high percentage of vampires being aristocracy. A mausoleum is much easier to break out of then a coffin under six feet of dirt. A inversion is also featured; Fitzroy lived a life of luxury before he became a vampire.

Byzantium: Averted with the two protagonists - a mother and daughter who've been living mostly as transients for almost 200 years, taking odd jobs, doing sex work, conning hapless men into funding and sheltering them, and often still living near the poverty line. But, this is all due to being pariahs among the wealthy, misogynistic vampire nobles, who prefer to turn blue-blooded men only, and refuse to help or mentor two female vamps of "low" birth.

Angel
Angel himself is not as rich as he could be. However Angel always does seem to have enough money to start over when he moves. He also had enough money stashed away to pay Cordy, Wes, Gunn and Fred their salaries yet only charges his clients on the basis of what they can afford to pay. And he owns a hotel that never has guests. He did stash that bag of loot from the unfortunate lady in the hotel for fifty years, so he certainly has a major emergency fund at hand.
Apparently when he was the evil vampire Angelus, if he wanted something he'd just kill the owner and take it, a pattern of behavior that doesn't encourage a creature of the night to put aside for a sunny day. This applies to most vampires in fact. When they need food, they kill someone; and when they want new clothes, they either take clothes from their victims or steal them from a store. Due to their aversion to sunlight, they typically either live underground or in crypts. As such, they have no real need for money. Darla and Angelus at one point talked about staying in high-end hotels and ordering room service (and eating the people who brought them food), and presumably they'd just leave without paying. With no need for money or any way for the law to prosecute them for theft, why bother?
Russell Winters, head of Russell Winters Enterprises from the first episode, is a straight example of a rich vampire, and lives in a mansion.

Hemlock Grove: Most vampires seen in the show are pretty wealthy. Olivia Godfrey comes from actual European nobility and married an American bioscience tycoon. Roman inherits his father's empire when he turns 18 and becomes the youngest CEO alive. In season 3 Roman runs into other vampires, who are all upper class or bourgeois.

The Sookie Stackhouse Mysteries and True Blood:
Eric is clearly the local entrepreneur and runs Fangtasia. And being the local sheriff means that he can force the local vampires to hang out in his bar regularly in order to entice the clientele.
There are plenty of middle class vampires. Bill Compton, for example, makes do with a rather old house that's in poor condition (at least before he became King of Louisiana, when his house got a very swank makeover). In the second or third book it's revealed that he owns a shopping complex, so he can't be that strapped for cash, but it's more like he's just discreet with his money. When he learns that the Bellefleur family home is in worse condition than his own, he quietly gives Caroline (one of his descendants) enough money to restore the house and then some. And as revealed in the epilogue of the books, he creates a line of video games designed for vampires, which is so successful that lands him on the books's version of the Fiction 500, he's able to buy Louisiana, and can afford to have his employees live on his estate.
Eddie lived in the suburbs like a normal person.
Subverted in True Blood with Sophie-Anne Leclerq, who despite being vampire royalty has been taxed by the IRS since coming out of the coffin for all the years that she paid no taxes, and resorts to selling "V" and even using lottery scratch cards to try to pay off her debts.

Averted with Fred, The Vampire Accountant, at least with the titular protagonist. Fred is a mild-mannered CPA, who just continues doing what he knows after being embraced. Partly justified, as he was only bitten a year before the start of the novel. His sire thought Fred's reserved ways hid a deep resentment for the world, so he embraced him, hoping that Fred would unleash his pent-up rage on the unsuspecting city, turning it into a bloodbath. He was rather disappointed with Fred after coming back.

In Dance in the Vampire Bund the Tepes vampire clan paid off the entire national debt of Japan as part of the deal that got the Bund, a politically autonomous refuge for vampires, set up, and they still have enough funds to operate the place, complete with a private army for security. Admittedly, the Tepes happen to be the royal family, and not all vampires are so affluent. It also took Mina a long time to lay the groundwork.

Played with in What We Do in the Shadows (2019).
Sure, the main vampires have a lavish New York mansion, but it's never properly explained how exactly they managed to accumulate such wealth, especially when they do things like try to pay by throwing ancient coins at cashiers.
Subverted with Nadja's backstory before she was embraced; she was so poor her family had to burn their donkey to survive, and Laszlo's buddies in England shunned him when he married her due to her background.

In The Dresden Files universe, the members of the White and Red Vampire Courts we have seen tend to be extremely wealthy. It may just be that the characters that Harry meets are either ranking members of the vampire aristocracy, or are the kind who can be promoted to such heights. In Changes, Harry sees a large number Red Court Vampires who have given into their bloodlust, and they're noted as only kept around to be used as cannon fodder.
Justified for the White Court, in that they're a (very) extended family, and when you're able and willing to Mind Rape normals into doing your bidding, it's not exactly hard to get rich, after which money begets money and it all stays in the family. The Raith clan, for example, owns the pornography business. All of it.

Subverted in The United States of Monsters as well as played straight. Vampires are literally so rich they were able to bail out the US economy in 2008. However, it turns out that only a tiny fraction of vampires control 99% of the money. The rest of vampirekind is either middle-class or dirt poor like the protagonist.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion:
Lord Janus Hassildor, Count Skingrad. It's not quite clear how rich he is, but his town is likely the most prosperous in Cyrodiil after the Imperial City itself, and he has an extremely well-appointed castle. Also likely applies to the Player Character if they get embraced, given that there's not much worth buying after a while.
Jakben, Earl of Imbel, is another vampire who's managed to hold a noble position, though he's not quite as rich as Lord Hassildor.

Some Discworld vampires.
Agnes's first impression of Count Magpyr in Carpe Jugulum is that he's the sort of nobleman who never, ever worries about money. Lady Margolotta is also very well off.
Otto Chriek works for the newspaper; though it's possible he only does so to indulge his one great passion, photography.
The very middle-class greengrocer Arthur Winkings, Count Notfaroutoe and his Vampire Vannabe wife Doreen, whose determined effort to keep up appearances results in them having the only terraced house with a crypt and a moat. (Considering he was a greengrocer first, and became a vampire after receiving a letter from a lawyer....)
There's a nameless vampire in Feet of Clay who works in such places as the holy-water section of a religious supply store.

In Diabolik Lovers, the cast is made up mostly of young vampire aristocrats, and the most common settings are drearily opulent mansions and castles that are ideal places for romantic vampire boys with lots of emotional baggage and behavioral issues to brood. The second most common setting is high school, and while the school is actually pretty normal, the vampires are chaufeurred there in limousines.

American Horror Story: Hotel tugs back and forth with this. The Countess is the owner of her own hotel and resides within the penthouse... and it's a flea-bitten Skid Row antique that has a reputation just this side of the Cecil Hotel. She does have the money that comes with decades of life, experience, and predation... or "did," because she trusted a huge chunk of it to Bernie Madoff. It's the stress of trying to keep the hotel open and her hedonistic lifestyle going while securing a steady supply of victims that partially drives a lot of the events of the season.

Played with Dracula from Castlevania. He's a God of Evil who is beyond material possessions. That huge castle and everything in it? They are simply an extension of his own evil power. One of the levels in Super Castlevania IV is a massive treasure vault in which everything, up to and including the boss, is made out of gold and jewels.

Played straight by Moroi vampire royalty. This is never thoroughly explained, though it is hinted that some of them hold jobs in the human world. Earning their wealthy living. Averted in the case of working-class Moroi, who differ little from their human counterparts.
Played straight with Galina, a Strigoi vampire who led a criminal empire in Russia. She lived in luxury until Rose staked her.
Abe Mazur, a non-royal Moroi, is also comfortably wealthy, earning his wealth through illegal activities.

Dracula by Bram Stoker: Count Dracula is the go-to example. Dracula lives in a big castle and summons Jonathan Harker to Transylvania to help him buy land in England. Harker notes that Dracula doesn't have any servants, but we later find out that it's because no local will come near the place. Dracula's continuing source of income seems to be buried treasure that is marked by Will-o'-the-Wisps one night out of the year.

The Volkihar vampires from the next game, on the other hand, are more evocative of fallen nobility, since they live in a rather dilapidated Big Fancy Castle which is now full of both old luxury and new scrap, debris and general yuck. This may be due to their leader Lord Harkon's obsession with chasing an old prophecy at the expense of everything else. Unfortunately, you can't renovate the castle once you take over (save for unblocking the entrance into the courtyard), though there are some mods to turn the castle fancy again. Like in the previous game, a long-time player is also likely to become comfortably loaded with gold, vampire or not. However, the trope is completely averted by all non-Volkihar vampires in the game, who tend to live in damp caves and other dark lairs.

Night Watch (Series): Mostly subverted in Sergey Lukyanenko's series. Since vampires are, basically, the lowest of the low in the hierarchy of the Others, their jobs in the Day Watch are limited to security guard duties. High Vampires fare a little better. Played slightly straight with Kostya Saushkin's father, who makes a decent living as an interior decorator (enough to put his son through medical school). Not so much in The Movie, where he's a poor butcher, who only has one pair of pants.

Kiss of the Damned: Those in the Connecticut community are all dressed very well and show every sign of being high society types. Maia however is an exception, as she lethally feeds on humans rather than follow their moral Vegetarian Vampire ways, which necessitates living in a more insecure position.

Only Lovers Left Alive's Adam and Eve are both rich enough to live alone without working, book first-class flights at the drop of a hat, and pay for any item they want(such as vintage guitars and stolen hospital blood) with big wads of bills. While Adam does put out records as a underground musician, he eschews credit for them and turns down paying gigs so as to remain anonymous(though he may have earned money from them in decades past). Eve meanwhile just spends her days lounging around reading with a box full of money and credit cards in her home.
Adam has also disconnected his house from the city energy grid, powering both it and his custom car with Nikola Tesla-inspired equipment that collects free electrical charge from the air - so he's at least saving plenty of dough on gas and utilities there too.
Seemingly averted with Eve's younger sister Ava, who shows up to leech off of the main couple - apparently not for the first time, either.

Dungeons & Dragons: The progenitor of vampirism, and well-known Magnificent Bastard, Strahd von Zarovich is the last "living" member of his noble family. He lives in a gigantic spooky castle, rules over his own demiplane and has his face printed on Barovia's coins. While this trope can also apply to his four consorts, it does not apply to everyone else that gets turned.

Moonlight has Josef, Nick's Mick's best vampire friend, who is the head of a major corporation. Mick himself is not rich and makes a living as a private investigator. Then again, he is fairly young by vampire standards (about 90). However, his LA apartment is pretty nice, and he even has a secret room where he keeps his freezer (vampires prefer freezers to coffins). The show has plenty of vamps both rich and poor, just like humans. Late in the series Coraline, Mick's sire, turns out to be a French noblewoman and claims most of the French aristocracy were vampires before the Revolution (Madam Guillotine being designed specifically to kill them).

Baldur's Gate III: Subverted with Astarion. He carries himself and dresses like an aristocrat, even claiming to be a magistrate, but his character background is Charlatan. Once the party knows he's a vampire, he quickly reveals that he is the slave of a more powerful vampire. His fancy clothes and elegant bearing are just part of a veneer to lure victims for his master; none of it is his.

In Vampire: The Masquerade and Vampire: the Requiem, this can be played straight or averted depending entirely on how many dots in the "Resources" merit a vampire has. Stereotypically, vampires tend to get richer with age and certain clans are more inclined to collect wealth and earthly goods than others. Some clans, like the Ventrue, tend to embrace people who were already rich while still alive and will put their neonates through a financial Training from Hell called "the agoge." Other clans, like Gangrel, tend (or even prefer) to live in destitution. Anarchs prefer to give a down-market vibe because they're stereotypically working class or worked for their money. The Nosferatu tend to be fantastically wealthy as the Knowledge Brokers of the vampire society, but prefer to live in places like sewers and caves for their safety and seclusion.
Requiem carries this on with the Invictus Covenant, which is all about old money, old blood, and status. In 1e, one of their benefits was being able to buy up dots of Resources at half-price.

While never explicitly stated, the Salvatores of The Vampire Diaries were among the town's elite before they were embraced and appear to still be wealthy. The Originals/Mikaelsons are definitely rich and Tyler after he becomes hybrid also qualifies. Since vampires can compel people into obedience, often a vampire will simply compel people into letting the vampire live in their houses and support the vampire financially.

Played with in Elrod's The Vampire Files, in which Jack Fleming gets a lot richer over the course of several books, but only because he pockets some cash each time he gets into a feud with the mob. If only the gangs had left him alone to un-live his un-life, he'd still be scraping by selling stories about spider-gods to pulp magazines.

In The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires, James has $85,000 in cash that he carries with him, he mostly preys upon the poor Black kids in the Six Mile neighborhood because he knows that nobody will investigate deaths in the ghetto, and a key part of his M.O. is to exploit his image as a respectable Southern Gentleman to get the rich locals involved in a financial scheme with promises of enormous wealth before taking their money and walking away (in this case, a Villainous Gentrification project that he proceeds to sabotage).

Count Yorga: Never stated in film but it's implied Yorga is pretty wealthy through his decades of undeath. In the first film, he states he comes from a country in Bulgaria, buys a lavish manor on the outskirts of Los Angeles and even fashion his cellar like a throne room of a castle where he has a throne with his family crest over it and where his brides sleep. In the sequel, he likewise buys a manor, though not quite a big as the first movie's (then again these films are unconnected) its more then spacious enough to include a abandoned graveyard where he buried most of his female victims until purchasing the house, now give the brides their own room with coffins, a separate room for a witch like character to stay in, shudder doors that can open and close with buttons to trap his prey, a quicksand pit in the back of the house to get rid of victims he doesn't turn and odd medieval trinkets around the house as well.

One of the Jason Wood short stories centers around Jason trying to help his vampire friend Verne Domingo create a socially acceptable explanation for why he is so rich - most of his fortune was acquired long before there were such things as banking laws and tax auditors, so now he needs a way to explain how he got all that cash if he wants to spend any of it. They eventually settle on dealing and collecting art/antiquities, which Verne already owns a considerable amount of.

The Vampire Chronicles.
Louis was a wealthy plantation owner as a mortal, and that wealth carried himself and Lestat through much of their world traveling adventures in Interview with a Vampire. In the present day he primarily haunts Louisiana and much less ostentatious.
Lestat is first introduced as a vagrant wastrel who latches himself onto Louis after turning him, using him for funds to fuel their travels, but in The Vampire Lestat, he gets to tell his side of the story, where after becoming a vampire he was already wealthy, but used the excuse of needing money to make Louis' acquaintance. As a mortal he was a Land Poor aristocrat, the youngest son of a minor nobility with a manor house and not much else, but when he himself was embraced by Magnus, he was gifted a literal treasure trove of gold, gems, and valuables that Magnus, a supremely reclusive vampire, had stolen from his victims over centuries and proceeded to do jack all with. At some point, he gave all his wealth to a series of banks where it's more or less taken care of itself, and now he has an army of accountants to look after his accountants' accountants. Lestat mentions that he has so much money that he doesn't know how much he has. More than enough to indulge any hideously expensive whim he has, which is just how he likes it. In Tale of the Body Thief, when the eponymous thief asks him for $20 million in exchange for letting him swap bodies for a day, as Lestat considers the offer, the monetary cost is literally the least important factor in the decision.
Lestat's latest protege Quinn Blackwood is the heir of an incredibly well endowed family trust, managed by a firm with sorta kinda supernatural ties that gets the kind of returns Wall Street execs would kill for. Ironically, despite his family's wealth and posh surroundings, he had a very humble upbringing, with the family estate being an actual plantation farm and extra bedrooms in his house rented as a bed and breakfast.

Played with in He Never Died: Jack's amassed a pretty substantial treasure trove throughout his extremely long life, not only of currency old and new but also of antique items which, were he inclined to sell, he could probably make millions off of. However, having done literally everything anyone could ever think of during that time, Jack is completely jaded and has zero concern for wealth or extravagance by the time of the film. Instead, he lives in a very modest apartment in a run-down neighborhood and purchases only what is necessary to survive (i.e. human flesh and blood) and avoid detection (and attend bingo).

The Elder Scrolls: This is usually averted, and most vampires live on the fringes of society as little better than bandits due to how vampires are shunned, but occasionally you do get vampires who've finagled high places in human society.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion:
Lord Janus Hassildor, Count Skingrad. It's not quite clear how rich he is, but his town is likely the most prosperous in Cyrodiil after the Imperial City itself, and he has an extremely well-appointed castle. Also likely applies to the Player Character if they get embraced, given that there's not much worth buying after a while.
Jakben, Earl of Imbel, is another vampire who's managed to hold a noble position, though he's not quite as rich as Lord Hassildor.
The Volkihar vampires from the next game, on the other hand, are more evocative of fallen nobility, since they live in a rather dilapidated Big Fancy Castle which is now full of both old luxury and new scrap, debris and general yuck. This may be due to their leader Lord Harkon's obsession with chasing an old prophecy at the expense of everything else. Unfortunately, you can't renovate the castle once you take over (save for unblocking the entrance into the courtyard), though there are some mods to turn the castle fancy again. Like in the previous game, a long-time player is also likely to become comfortably loaded with gold, vampire or not. However, the trope is completely averted by all non-Volkihar vampires in the game, who tend to live in damp caves and other dark lairs.

In Touhou Project, Remilia and Flandre seem comfortable in the Scarlet Devil Mansion. Complete with a Ninja Maid with Time Hax that helps her speed up chores, and a Kung Fu master for a gate keeper. According to Perfect Memento in a Strict Sense, the mansion often holds parties at night and invites other people in Gensokyo.
Not that anybody seems to get paid beyond having a place to live, and there's a reference in the PCB manual that Sakuya's the only reason the mansion is even heated in the winter. The Scarlet sisters seem to prefer being mostly self-sufficient to having a full treasure vault.

The eponymous count in the Netflix mini-series Dracula (2020) is, naturally, a wealthy aristocrat who resides in an enormous castle when the story begins in the late 19th century. After the Time Skip into the 21st century he already has fancy digs set up for him in England via a law firm he's been a client of for at least a century, and it takes him only a few more months at most to become part of London's upper class. Van Helsing actually exploits this to track him down by simply looking for the largest, most expensive apartment high-rise with the best view that doesn't have churches in sight.

in Ms. Vampire Who Lives in My Neighborhood, Sophie Twilight is at least well-off enough to live in a Big Fancy House, possess a large library, indulge in otaku interests on her laptop, and regularly order shipments of blood on the internet.

Lord Ruthven, the villain of The Vampyre (1819), is a suave and wealthy aristocrat whose money and social standing help him hide the fact that he is also a vampire who preys on young women. It is commonly accepted that Lord Ruthven is meant to resemble Lord Byron, employer and travel companion of the author, John Polidori. Trope Maker.

Dracula: Ruler of the Night: Drac secured his wealth a long time ago after he became a vampire through helping in wars and from family stockade as well as "tributes" a local village gives him to keep his castle at least maintenance and more then enough when he moves to London. It's only by sheer coincidence his first victim, Lucy, is likewise well off. Even after he loses Carfax Abby, having Lucy and her mother as socialites had his brides and him just visit a fellow one's manor, turn her and take her manor as his own.

The Laundry Files (by Charles Stross): In The Rhesus Chart, it's pointed out that any long-lived vampire has to be wealthy; they're essentially serial killers and only those with resources can afford to get away with murder over a long period, not to mention odd behaviour is more likely to be excused in the wealthy.

In Monster Family, Dracula has been updated to be more high-tech, but he's still loaded. On top of an enormous castle full of goodies like a giant pipe organ and a yards-long fireplace, he has his own custom jet, a jetpack, and enough resources to develop a doomsday device and launch it into the sun.

In Loop Hero, before the world's destruction, vampires were the nobility of the planet who protected villages from monsters and are summoned by building their elaborate manors. They fed on the local populace as payment in what they presented as a mutually beneficial arrangement, but had a tendency to lose control and go into feeding frenzies which could decimate villages.

The Twilight Saga: The Cullen family own their own island off the west coast of Brazil, and can apparently afford to purchase or build any number of honeymoon cottages, luxury cars, and gemstones. One of the vampires explicitly mentions that it's due to Alice's ability to read the future and the relevant impact it has on the stock market. Before Bella ever meets Edward, the first thing she notices is the incredibly expensive cars that they drive parked in the school parking lot.

Unique has vampires literally creating corporate culture, as an old joke on humanity. Soulless entities influencing the world through employed minions? Nonhuman "citizens" given the same rights and privileges as a human being? Needless to say, the vampires have cash to burn when it comes to indulging their hobbies.

Tsukihime: Arcueid Brunestud can rent out entire floors of hotels and apartment complexes despite having no obvious source of income. Subverted though, she just hypnotizes the staff into giving her the space. Her real income source comes from being an elemental who can create gold from thin air. A fanboy of hers in the Mage's Association (probably Gransurg Blackmore) also gives her extra fairy gold, which Merem Solomon then sells via the Church and gives Arc the loot. Presumably Arcueid does this in small enough amounts that there's no risk of crashing the gold market.

Anita Blake: The vampires vary in this. Jean-Claude is a very enterprising vampire and has businesses all over town, employing various werewolves and vampires in his various clubs, especially at a strip club he often emcees personally.
While an uncommon topic in the series, the books have shown that becoming a vampire is a dubious economic decision. Not only does it limit your job options but as most vampires do not become incredibly attractive and desirable, staying unlive usually means paying the living for more than they pay for their own food.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Averted. The majority of vampires seen in the series live in dank squalor such as crypts or abandoned buildings.
This makes sense since most vampires are legally dead and cannot pick up resources from their human lives. For instance, after being chipped so that he can't harm human beings, Spike has to resort to scaring people into giving him money. Sunnydale being what it is, it doesn't exactly make him rich.
Vampires are at the bottom of the monster pecking order in this setting. Demons may pretend at aristocracy, but vampires will more likely serve as Mooks.
Dracula, however, lives in a portable medieval castle.

Interview with the Vampire (2022):
Vampire couple Louis de Pointe du Lac and Lestat de Lioncourt both have sizeable incomes. This allows them to enjoy a very comfortable, opulent lifestyle in New Orleans, and they're part of the city's high society. Louis owns his family's mansion (his household is served by at least one maid, a butler, and presumably a cook), and Lestat's magnificent townhouse has many rooms and a large courtyard. While getting to know her new vampire dads, Claudia observes that "Uncle Les and Daddy Lou were rich. They had nice clothes and a nice auto carriage." (This scene takes place in 1917, when only the wealthy can afford to own cars.) She later writes in her journal that "you wouldn't believe how time flies when there's people to eat and money to spend," and summarizes her vampiric existence as "Kill, spend, kill, spend."
Louis and his vampire boyfriend Armand reside in a spacious penthouse apartment in Dubai (it's located in "the most desired real estate in the country") with human servants, and one of the artistic masterpieces hanging on the walls is Rembrandt van Rijn's The Storm on the Sea of Galilee, a stolen painting worth around $100 million. Daniel Molloy observes that it costs a fortune to maintain such a high level of privacy.
Averted with Bruce, who once worked in a car factory owned by Henry Ford when he was human, and vampirism hasn't improved his economic situation because when Claudia meets him, he's a vagabond who aimlessly travels from place to place on his motorcycle.

The short story The Extinction Parade by Max Brooks features rich, aristocratic vampires battling a Zombie Apocalypse to save their food source. Brooks has stated that he sees vampires as the personification of privilege and aristocracy, and used this as a metaphor for the reactions of the world (particularly the comfortable developed world) to crises like Global Warming and resource shortages; in other words, World War Z with vampires in place of the United States.
In the comic book adaptation, the vampires' wealth is explained by use of human proxies to put a living human face on their finances and cover up their misdeeds, with most of them recruited through promises of wealth or eternal life, or simple intimidation. The narrator and her partner Laila have one that they call Willem, whose entire family has served them this way for several generations.
The comic also combines this trope with a streak of populist anti-elitism, with the narrator describing vampires as parasites who contributed nothing to society while exploiting its weakest and most vulnerable members. "Willem" also snaps and kills himself over his poor treatment by his vampire masters, telling them in his final words that they should learn how to take care of themselves for once. In addition, even before the Zombie Apocalypse the growth of the middle class was having the same effect on vampires that peak oil has on human society. Desperately poor people were the vampires' go-to source for sustenance, as they were the ones who, unlike the rich and the middle-class, wouldn't be missed by society at large, and as a result many vampires moved to Third World countries as the West grew more prosperous (and thus depleted of easily-accessible resources). The narrator laments the fact that vampires never bothered to learn how to sustain themselves on such a difficult food source rather than treating it as a mere sport for when killing slum dwellers was getting boring, wondering if more of them might have survived had they not grown lazy subsisting on the low-hanging fruit.
