No. 6 — Richie Rich Born Into Ownership

Richie has outgrown vaults and spreadsheets; he now collects experiences like rare coins. In this Key West daydream, his fortune softens into sunburnt luxury—salt air, pastel excess, and a loyalty that can’t be bought. At his side lives his imagined companion: a tropical “fantasy dog,” stitched from island myth and childhood boredom, equal parts guardian and indulgence. Here, wealth is no longer counted—it’s escaped. The piece suggests that even the richest child still invents something priceless: companionship.
