In "Only a Poor Old Man," Uncle Scrooge faces off against the Beagle Boys in a clever game of wits when they plot to drain his money bin by drilling into it.

In "Back to the Klondike," Uncle Scrooge, spurred by a memory-restoring pill, recalls a long-lost fortune buried in the Yukon—prompting a trip with Donald and the nephews to reclaim it. There, they find Scrooge’s old claim now held by Glittering Goldie, a glamorous former dance hall girl with a past—and a debt—Scrooge hasn’t forgotten.

In "The Horse-Radish Treasure," Uncle Scrooge faces a bizarre financial crisis when he learns that a long-forgotten contract from a centuries-old ancestor could cost him everything—unless he retrieves a lost case of horseradish from a sunken ship in the Caribbean.

When Uncle Scrooge locks his fortune in a repurposed water tank to keep it safe from the Beagle Boys, the gang still finds a way to target his stash—proving that even the cleverest security can’t outsmart a well-planned heist. With Donald Duck and the nephews right in the middle, this high-stakes chase through the money bin is equal parts chaos and cleverness.

When Scrooge Ducks buys a Hawaiian island to store his fortune, he doesn’t expect the Beagle Boys to hijack his shipment and trap him and the nephews on a remote island inhabited only by a grumpy old Hawaiian named Opu Nui and the elusive menehunes—tiny, secretive folk said to build ancient stone walls. With the money locked away and no way off the island, the ducks must outwit their captors while unraveling the mystery of the menehunes before the Beagle Boys make off with Scrooge’s fortune.

When Uncle Scrooge sinks nearly every 1916 quarter into the Atlantic to make one the most valuable coin ever, a steamroller flattens his last one—sending him on a dive to recover a new one.

Uncle Scrooge, seeking a break from the grind of managing his fortune, takes a rare vacation to the mysterious land of Tralla La—where it's said no money exists at all.
