And now it’s Cadbury time! Cadbury has always seemed to be a James Bond type fellow trapped as Richie’s babysitter, but after reading his earlier adventures as butler to Lord Helpus, it makes sense he might enjoy the quieter life in the mansion.

Strange, I always thought the Cadbury’s past stories revolved around Sir Rudy Blighter, I didn’t remember Lord Helpus at all. And I am still searching for the Rudy Blighter stories, I know they will turn up.

And now to one of my favorites, Cadbury always takes such initiative and is so thorough and dependable! And cute, as is this story…

That is storytelling at its finest! Although, a bit silly that the Riches would ever need insurance when there is just soooo…much…money…everywhere on this estate! And yes, of course I have to make my usual comment, “Where are the estate guards??? How is this salesman allowed to just walk up to Richie??” Protect the young lad someone!!!

Now we go to the non-handsomely drawn version of Cadbury, but I do appreciate a robot story so enjoy!

I’m curious if we lingered in the caves how many random people would be living down there as they do in the Rich mansion. Don’t remember what I’m talking about? Check out the first story on this page:

This one pager is a quick reminder that Cadbury is human and can sometimes lower his decorum..

Now for some excitement, moving statues! What???!!!

Seems odd that the richest man in the world would be selling statues personally in his free time. Perhaps the statue could carry Cadbury straight to me!

And lastly, here’s one more cute story that loves Cadbury as much as I do.

A swift foot thrust!! I love how the editor is reading “Trash” magazine. Do you love Cadbury as much as me? Tell me what you think in the comments below!

And type “Cadbury” in the search bar/magnifying glass at the top left for tons more Cadbury stories to read. Happy Holidays!

See Dollar’s dreams, his fine wardrobe, pigging out and getting braces!

Time for more Dollar stories! A few of today’s stories (1, 4, 5) are especially meaningful for me because they come from one of my original four Richie digests that I read nine million times as a kid. All of these stories are “classic” Richie stories to me and it’s great to read them as an adult as there was a lot I didn’t grasp as a kid! For more on my classics, check out these stories:

But, first to this awesome one-pager with a very aptly named kid!

Look at Orville trying to gaslight poor Richie. You’re the fibber, not dear Richie!

And now to a most amazing invention, I have been waiting all my life for this, I would love to see my dreams!

Aw, they are so cute! I wonder if Dollar’s dream human voice is normal or like a Scooby Doo type voice?

Speaking of cute, if this next story isn’t in the dictionary under cute, I don’t know what is!

“He’ll be in down in a moment, Mr. Crook.” Such politeness! Now I see why everyone tries to steal from them, such a refined and genial experience, a pleasure to rob from!

And now we go to one of our favorite pairs of nemeses (had to look up the plural of nemesis), Chef Pierre and Dollar!

Dollar with a food belly always cracks me up! And now, the whole mansion is empty for no apparent reason, but thank goodness for Dollar!

I love Richie and his dad saying, “Blah blah”. I say that all the time, now I know why!

I know I am a broken record, but how do all 600 servants take off the same day???? And why is the front door wide open?? And where are the estate police? How did they not see these crooks driving up???? Although really if the  vault was robbed, woopdeedoo. It would be like if Jeff Bezos was robbed of a penny. It’s not like there aren’t one zillion other vaults filled to the brim just laying around rotting. Or buried in Gloria’s yard!

And now for the featured performance, Dollar gets braces! As a kid reading this I assumed dogs getting braces was a normal thing, but I have yet to see a real dog with braces. Get your sunglasses on and prepare for this fun story!

Interesting that Richie became a redhead at the end, just like his son:

Speaking of redheads, Nurse Jenny appears to be moonlighting at the horsodontics office. Braces off in two weeks! Wouldn’t that be amazing!

UPDATE: Have done some research and dog braces is a thing! As is the quick turnaround!

What did you think of these Dollar stories?

100th post! Mr. Rich says no to yes men and Prof. Keenbean invents a machine that invents anything!

This first story is very cute and brings up a problem that has always affected rich people. It’s the fact that anyone on your payroll is going to tell you what you want to hear because otherwise, you might fire them and then they don’t get paid! Honest opinions are hard to come by, but Mr. Rich finds a way…

Yiish! Richie better watch his back, Smedley will be out for revenge! I’m on board with the barber, shoe shine guy, and newspaper vendor being a bit palsy with Mr. Rich, but the elevator operator? Surely he is employed by Mr. Rich as Richard owns every building. Either way, I’m glad Mr. Rich got rid of these shysters except when needing a shoe shine. But, once these commoners get a taste of Board of Director salaries, they may become yes men too.

And now to a rather shocking development, in the two years I’ve done this blog, I am quite sure that I have yet to post a Prof. Keenbean story!! What kind of self-respecting Richie Rich blog doesn’t have some Keenbean? So, I make up for that with the ultimate invention, an invention that invents other inventions! Read on…

Well, no need to destroy it! It could have made an invention that creates world peace! Do you love Keenbean stories and if yes, what were some of your favorite inventions?

Here are some non-Keenbean invention stories, in case you missed them!

Right after I published this, WordPress informed me that this is my 100th post! That’s pretty exciting! Woot woot!

 

 

 

 

 

The sad tale of when an amnesia ray causes Richie to get yelled at by his parents

One of the great things about Richie stories is the loving relationship he has with his parents. One does wonder why the Riches only had one child with all their wealth and hundreds of staff, but perhaps they foresaw the wrangling and fighting that always accompanies extremely rich siblings running the family empire so they figured this was best.

In this story though, we see the scary side of Richard. I remember hating this story when I was young because he SCREAMS at poor Richie. Even Cadbury is a jerk. But, it is all because they have amnesia, so read on to discover how this strangeness occured…

Oh, how I hate this frame!!!

WAAA! Poor Richie!

And, if you like reading stories where Richard is a big meanie, check out:

Mr. Rich doesn’t get his sleep and madness ensues!

Grumpy old school Richard Rich

In other news, it is interesting that not only does the ray cause Amnesia, but the Memory ray also turns your hair from orange to blonde!

How weird was it to see Cadbury sticking his tongue out? Such a rapscallion! But, we have seen him ill-behaved before:

Cadbury, the perfect butler, gets emotional?

What did you think of this frightening tale?

 

 

 

Richie becomes a servant for the day and it is exhausting!

Here are two fun stories featuring basically the same storyline. Richie’s Dad asks him to help entertain clients, but he ends up entertaining the wrong people! The stories vary in that Richie is servantless in the first, has hundreds of cranky staff in the second, but the end result in both is serious snoring! Thank to Larry T. for the first story, and enjoy!

That boy will go far in life indeed. Little did they realize their caddy could buy and sell them! It’s interesting how many lifeguards and kitchen staff must be paid to sit around all day and do nothing on the Rich estate. Finally they have something to do and it’s all whine with that cheese…

Did you remember one of these classic tales?

HAPPY NEW YEAR, Richie fans!

Wow, what a year! I started this blog in late August and now, five months later, we are up to 22 subscribers and 10-30 fans who drop by each day. And Sid Jacobson and Ernie Colón came by to comment on a story! I don’t think it gets much better than that!

But, there is something I would love to happen in 2014, and that is for YOU to leave some comments here. On the story, on Richie in general, on anything Richie related, I would love to hear your opinion and thoughts, what you like, what annoys you, what you found funny/interesting/weird/anything in the story. I started this blog to meet other fans and discuss all things Richie, but I already know what I think, I want to hear what you think. Your email address won’t show and you can make up a fake name if you’re shy. So, maybe you can add commenting here to your New Year’s resolution list. 🙂

Speaking of resolutions, come join the Riches for a New Year’s themed Richie Rich story!

Now off you go to jog, drink a green shake, comment on this lovely blog, call your mom, etc….. Happy New Year!
