The post below about the richest 500 people in the world made me more curious as to the backstory of Thurston Howell III from Gilligan's Island fame. After a bit of poking around, I found a great list on Forbes.com with the 15 Richest Fictional People. Glad to see C. Montgomery Burns and Bruce Wayne on the list. Looks like they did some research...or at least had a good day at the bar after work hammering it out. The writeups are pretty funny/imaginative:
McDuck, Scrooge
Age: 80
Source: Mining
Net Worth: $8.2 Billion
Hometown: Duckberg
Marital Status: Single
Planet's richest waterfowl amassed one of the world's largest collections of gold coins and paper currency, kept in giant money bin atop hill in native Duckburg. Enjoys swimming in money. Moved to American West from native Scotland, amassing fortune from gold and copper mines. No longer invests--keeps everything in cash. Never gives to charity; never married. Lives in mansion with three great-nephews, Huey, Dewey and Louie. Member since 1947
