The meme is a humorous comparison between the fictional dragon Smaug from "The Hobbit" and the 15th richest person in the United States. The text, which appears in the image, is a fictional conversation between Smaug and a Forbes journalist, where Smaug is described as the 15th richest person in the US, and the journalist asks him to explain his wealth. The text is written in a humorous and satirical tone, with Smaug's response explaining that he is a "fifteenth-richest American" and that his wealth is "overwhelming" and "fifteen times" that of the 14th-richest person.

So full that he a sleeps buried under gold. We're talking literal tons and =Saaa4 oe tons of gold by weight. SASS Forbes ranks Smaug as the second wealthiest fictional § 23 character. He had been first, but the price of gold took eine a tumble and now his vast, overwhelming fortune is only worth an estimated $51,400,000,000.00, or $51.4 billion. That means that EVEN THOUGH he has an ENTIRE MOUNTAIN full of almost nothing but solid gold, Smaug would rank as the FIFTEENTH wealthiest American. Fourteen Americans have more money than a gold- hoarding dragon. Please consider that next time you say deca- billionaires deserve their wealth and shouldn't pay their employees living wages.
