The venerable magazine has put together a roster of the world's wealthiest fictional characters, with imaginary magnates like Thurston Howell III, Scrooge McDuck, Richie Rich and "Twilight's" Carlisle Cullen boasting bogus bankrolls. Topping the list: Cullen, the 370-year-old vampire who has built a $34.1 billion fortune thanks to stock-picking by his adopted daughter Alice, who can see the future。
福布斯近日公布了15名最富有的虚拟人物形象,其中包括迪士尼的史高治·麦克老鸭(Scrooge McDuck),《小富豪》中的理查-里奇(Richie Rich),暮光之城的吸血鬼卡伦医生(Carlisle Cullen )等等。他们的平均资产高达73亿美元。位于首位的是《暮光之城》系列里370岁的吸血鬼卡伦,他积累了341亿美元,大多数来源于股票投资,因为他的女儿能看到未来。
Perhaps most disturbing about the list is that the Tooth Fairy can now afford to buy Uncle Sam. The man who wants you went from infinite wealth to being worth less than a billion today, according to the magazine's calculations. The Tooth Fairy's dental investments are now worth $3.9 billion。
而象征美国的山姆大叔(Uncle Sam)今年则损失惨重,这位脾气暴躁的拓荒者和前美军招募形象曾在该榜单中占据榜首位置,但其资产从几乎“无限”跌到今年的不足10亿美元。连牙仙女都能轻松把他比下去。
