Uhm ... I know I'm not the one being asked here, but I hope and assume  
that your questions are open to everybody? :-)

Is there any way that would NOT be out of character? :-)

I guess it would have been very difficult making the same amount as a  
globetrotter like Scrooge without leaving the country. Also, correct me if  
I'm wrong anybody, but didn't they in the original Barks story turn out to  
have the same amount of mines of every kind? Meaning, unless South Africa  
has the possibility of mining for everything, and in the same amount as  
all the mines Scrooge found or bought on his way to becoming the richest,  
Glomgold _must_ have left the country at a point.
