www.forbes.com/books/2007/12/10/forbes-fictional-rich-oped-books-cx_fict1507_sort.htmlForbes' Fictional 15 list for 2007 was released yesterday. Perhaps most notable is Scrooge McDuck's upward shift from #3 to #1. This year also features the inclusion of several new members (Mom, Pewterschmidt, Addams) and the departure of several others, including the mysterious Prince Abakaliki of Nigeria, Mario, and "Daddy" Warbucks. Discuss the implications of this shift in monetary powers and it's affect on the global economy.

Also, there are some sub-articles detailing reasons for members dropping out (apparently, Peach recently sued Mario for divorce?). Ernie: Lex dropped out following the 2005 list apparently.
