The Best of Walt Disney Comics #96172

In "Only a Poor Old Man," Scrooge McDuck finds himself outmaneuvered when the Beagle Boys build a structure right next to his money bin, planning to drill into it and steal his fortune. With a clever twist, Scrooge secretly moves his wealth to an old underwater reservoir, banking on the fact that the Beagle Boys won’t suspect such a hidden stash. But when the crooks learn of the reservoir, they plot to flood the area by destroying the dam—turning Scrooge’s clever hiding place into a trap of their own design.

When Scrooge decides to ditch his money bins for safer greenbacks stored in an old water tank, he thinks he’s outsmarted the Beagle Boys—until they show up anyway, proving that even the most secure vaults aren’t safe from a well-planned heist. With Donald, Huey, Dewey, and Louie on the case, the hunt is on to protect the cash before the crooks strike again.
