    2nd wealthiest fictional character? Thats cute! No. Not even close! Forbes needs exposure to more fiction.

    There are a lot of galactic emperors to choose from. All of which would easily beat out a single little mountain of gold.

    Lefty tries to make meme without wall of text challenge (impossible)

    For real though thats some scary shit. Billions and trillions are such huge numerbs they blur together when in fact they have more difference than any number preceding them.

      The fact that literal Scrooge McDuck probably has chump change compared to Bezos says enough tbh.

      It’s not really a good comparison to use the value of gold on earth for Smaug’s wealth, you have to use the value of gold in middle earth, which is likely higher.
