Now adjust for inflation. The comic was published in 1989. $1 then is $2.48 today. That’s a cumulative price increase of 148.22%, or an average price increase of 2.71% per year for 34 years. It is 4:30am, I am on a shuttle bus, and I am not showing any signs of going to sleep anytime soon.

He rounded down the number for some reason. This is how much money Scrooge McDuck has, $315,576,000,000,000,000. That is with leap years included.
Okay what about inflation
Just multiply by 2.48 I suppose
$782,628,480,000,000,000 in today’s dollars.
782 quadrillion dollars. That’s the United States economy.
Far more. The US GDP is only in the trillions.
IDK why I said United states, I meant the planet. Microplastics must’ve took over for a second
Still more. The planet is something like 500 trillion.
Inflation is likely higher, since McDuck has way more of the cake than realistic.
He be causing hyperinflation with that money
