About Me

I was born in 1867 in Glasgow, Scotland. In Back To Long Ago!
I am the Richest Duck in the world. One might say that if Cornelius Coot was the founder of the 19th century town called Duckburg, I was indeed the founder of our 20th century city with the same name... Since I own 99% of the city it has in practice become "McDuckburg".
I earned my first dime as a 10 year old in 1877. 3 years later in 1880, I left for America as a 13 year old. In 1898, after a lot of adventures I finally ended up in Klondike. There I found a golden rock at the size of a goose egg. The next year I reached my first $1,000.000 and bought the deed for Killmule Hill from Casey Coot, the son of Clinton Coot and grandson of Cornelius Coot.
Finally, I ended up in Duckburg in 1902. After some dramatic events where I faced both the Beagle Boys and president Roosevelt and his "Rough Riders" at the same time, I teared down the rest of the old fort Duckburg and raised my famous Money Bin at the same site.
In the years to follow, I travelled all around the world in order to increase my fortune. During these and my previous travels, I learned a lot of different languages from all parts of the world. Meanwhile my family ran the Money Bin. Ca. 1908 Miss Emily Quackfaster was hired as my secretary.
When I finally returned to Duckburg in 1930 I found himself the richest Duck in the world. I had however changed. The new $crooge McDuck was tough and hostile toward his surroundings. Thus his own family left him.
In 1942 I closed down my empire and retired to a big house totally unlike my previous (and later) style, in Duckburg.
On Christmas day in 1947 I finally met my nephew Donald Duck again together with the grand nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck. In the next 20 years to follow my and my nephews experienced more great adventures than ever before.
After returning to public life in 1947, I have also fought an endless struggle to keep my fortune and to remain the richest duck in the world. After 1947, The Beagle Boys have constituted a continuous threat to my fortune and counter-parts as Flintheart Glomgold and Rockerduck have tried all kind of tricks to pass me in wealth and success. In addition to this the Italian witch Magica De Spell has since ca. 1960 chased my number one dime without any success. So far I have succeeded well in my struggle, but there is never much time to rest before the next battle...
