* UnderminedByReality: As is famously said by the titular duck himself, Scrooge ascends to wealth by being "tougher than the toughies and sharper than the sharpies", and the {{Aesop}} entry on the main page states loud and clear that hard work and perseverance do pay off, with Don Rosa feeling touched by the letters he received from readers telling him his book had inspired them to work for their dreams -- which Don himself was certainly a prime example of, DoingItForTheArt. Sadly, this admirable dedication never rewarded him monetarily in the same way it did Scrooge. Because of Disney Comics' method of revenue distribution, the author could only ever make money on the basis of a one-time payment per page, with no rights to any royalties. The depression and loss of passion for the artform this led him into, combined with failing eyesight, would culminate in Don retiring from the industry, as explained in the [[http://career-end.donrosa.de/ epilogue to the Don Rosa Collection]]. Just to twist the knife further, Disney refused to print the epilogue in an official edition of the collection.
