Forbes Fictional Fifteen is an article compiled by Michael Noer and Dan Ackman on September 2, 2002. The article pays homage to some of the most notoriously rich pop-culture characters of the 20th (and 21st) century. Forbes provided each character with a short biography and statistics including their age, worth, and location. In 2005, Michael Noer and David M. Ewalt produced an updated list of fifteen characters, including ten of the original fifteen.
