The Forbes Fictional 15

The S&P 500 is down about 40% over the last 12 months. There have been nearly 190,000 layoffs at America's 500 largest companies in just the last six weeks. And the U.S. government is spending a trillion dollars to keep the economy afloat.

Times are tough--even if you're imaginary.

This year's edition of the Forbes Fictional 15, our annual listing of fiction's richest, features significant turnover and turmoil. More than half of last year's members fell off the list, and those who remain are poorer on average; 12 months ago, you needed at least $1.3 billion to make the cut. This year, you only need $800 million.

heh no offense to Forbes, but I think stuff like this is way more interesting d=

humour, articles
