Richest Cartoon Characters
When it comes to cartoons and comparisons of wealth, the problem invariably arises that these characters, at least most of the time, exist in different worlds. Where a million dollars might make one the richest man on Earth in one world, the same amount could make one a pauper in another. That being said, some characters are just blatantly the richest cartoon characters out there.
Scrooge McDuck, Disney/Duck Tales – The guy has a ten story vault… filled with gold coins… that he swims in. Need I say more? Scrooge McDuck began his wealth as a child when he was given a dime for shining a man’s shoes. He would keep that “#1 Dime” as his luck charm and to this day considers it the most valuable thing he owns. Scrooge McDuck is the epitome of the richest man, er duck in the world. It’s his whole reason for existing.
Flintheart Glomgold, Disney/Duck Tales – If you’re going to mention Scrooge McDuck then you have to mention his rival, Flintheart Glomgold. If Flintheart has 98 cents, then Scrooge has 99. Unfortunately for Flintheart, this is how things have always been despite any of Flintheart’s dastardly plans. At the very least you have to credit him for one thing, he’s not lazy.

Bruce Wayne, DC Comics – Billionaire playboy by day (or so he’d have you think), caped crusader by night. Bruce Wayne’s wealth began with the inheritance from his murdered parents. From those beginnings, his wealth has grown exponentially. Lex Luthor would have made this main list too if it weren’t for the fact that Bruce Wayne now also owns everything Lex once had.
