  Are you suggesting that Scrooge McDuck's net work is less than $310 quadrillion? Second question: how do you know?

  Bro, it’s a comic. They’re not trying to send a message, it’s supposed to be ridicilous.

  I mean, THE main character traits of Scrooge McDuck are that he’s stingy and absolutely ludicrously filthy rich.

    being a billionaire is already filthy fucking rich.

    let’s replace it with everyone’s most hated cunt, the Muskrat estimated networth at 225 billion.

    let’s say he loses a million every minute, which is let’s be honest still a shitton of money, literally life-changing for at least 95% of the planet.

    well at that rate of losses 1 million every minute

    it would still take him 177 days to lose all his networth.

    increase it to 1 million every hour, which is still a very good rate to be losing “money” and it takes him 29 years to lose it.

      This is a comic book. For children. Not an economics lesson.

  It is a comic done for kids. There is no message, except entertaining them and selling comics.

  I’d like to see you swim in a giant money bin with less than $310 quadrillion.

  It does get the message through though because it’s just about feelings not about some actual danger.
