The Forbes Fictional 15
Here's something fun that I never knew existed: each year Forbes names its list of the top 15 richest fictional characters, and this year's list came out a couple of weeks ago. What a fun list! I'm especially amused by Monty Burns and Mario's appearances. I'm dismayed by the fact that only one woman made the list, but slightly consoled that at this rate, Little Orphan Annie should top it in a few short years.
Since I've missed out on previous lists, I don't know who else has been cut from the list in recent years. Where's Jay Gatsby? Are we talking constant dollars here? Or is he disqualified because he's dead? How about Midas? Who else should make the list?
The list:
1. Oliver "Daddy" Warbucks
2. C. Montgomery Burns
3. Scrooge McDuck
4. Richie Rich
5. Jed Clampett
6. Mr. Monopoly
7. Bruce Wayne
8. Tony Stark
9. Prince Abakaliki of Nigeria
10. Thurston Howell III
11. Willy Wonka
12. Lucius Malfoy
13. Tony Montana
14. Lara Croft
15. Mario
