Richie Rich

Richie Rich is a fictional character who debuted in Harvey Comics in the 1950s. He is known as the Poor Little Rich Boy or the Richest Kid in the World, Richie Rich appeared in several comic book titles in the 1960s and 1970s, such as Richie Rich Millions (1961) and Richie Rich Dollars & Cents (1963). The comic book series was created by cartoonist Warren Kremer.

Richie is the only child of fantastically wealthy parents. He lives and works in an expansive mansion and owns at least two of everything money could buy. He appears to be around 7-10 years old, wears a waistcoat and blue shorts, and occasionally attends school.

In 1980, Richie Rich appeared in his own animated television series, sharing a timeslot with Scooby-Doo. In the animated version, Richie and his pals are somewhat older, around 12 years old. In the cartoon, Richie wears a red sweater with the letter "R" in front.

In 1994, a live-action Richie Rich movie, starring Macaulay Culkin as the title character, was released by Warner Bros. Pictures.

In 1996, the second and most recent Richie Rich animated television series aired in syndication, starring Katie Leigh as the voice of the title character. The series ran 13 made-for-TV episodes.

Forbes magazine estimates that Richie is the second-wealthiest fictional character (after Santa Claus).[1] (http://www.forbes.com/2002/09/13/400fictional_3.html)
