== About Richard ==
He is the father of Richie Rich, and is also a wealthy business owner, who owns a number of corporations. He is married to Regina Rich in both the comic book and the Hanna-Barbera animated series. He was voiced by Stanley Jones, who also lent his voice to Cadbury in the animated series. In the Season 1 Treasure Chest segment "Silence Is Golden", his first name is revealed to be George, but in two Gems segments and in the comic book series, Richard is his official first name.
In the comic book series, Mr. Rich has lighter red hair, while in the animated series, his hair is more a darker shade of red. He is also depicted as a big eater, though such practice was only seen in the comic book series. He is also a very kind and generous man, who would donate his excess money to needy charities. In one episode of the animated series, when the jade Maltese Monkey statue was scheduled to be up for auction because the museum desperately needed the money, Mr. Rich had planned to buy the prized statue and donate it back to the museum, only to learn that it was a robbery plot.
