"The Second-Richest Duck" is an Uncle Scrooge comic book story written and illustrated by Carl Barks in February 1956.

A two-day-old issue points a South African mine owner, named Flintheart Glomgold, as the new richest duck in the world and describes his net worth as over one multiplujillion and nine obsquatumatillion.

Scrooge can't accept the idea of someone being richer than him, so he checks his fortune and learns his net worth also surpasses one multiplujillion and nine obsquatumatillion.

Upon learning he's still not a second-class zillionaire, he goes to South Africa to meet Glomgold and check on his title as the world's richest duck.

They start comparing wealth but, since they can't do it without losing temper, Donald and his nephews have to tie them up.

Scrooge tells his family he agreed to this wild rally because they are five to protect his string ball, but Flintheart is alone.

Scrooge's ball was now small enough to be kept within his top hat, which came in handy next night to protect it from locusts, while Flintheart wasn't so lucky.
