<DIV>>>>> They list Scrooge's age as 80, wonder how the came by that
figure.</DIV>

<DIV>Using Don Rosa's timeline, which he made by trying to arrange Scrooge's
reminiscences throughout Barks' stories into a coherent and plausible whole
which could work, Scrooge was born in 1867 and died in 1967, when Barks
retired.</DIV>
<DIV>This makes him 30 when he strikes it rich in the Klondike, and 80 in
December 1947; by then, he has become "The Richest Duck in the World".</DIV>
