A rich character does a job involving public service (often a cop, soldier, or doctor) despite obviously not needing the pay. Instead, they do the work to help people or for personal satisfaction — or to avoid boredom. They will often have conflict with both their family — who wonder what they're doing down in the muck with the "common people" — and their work peers — who class them sight unseen as a dilettante after thrills. They spend all their time proving themselves.
Sometimes overlaps with Fiction 500, Crimefighting with Cash, or Rich Kid Turned Social Activist.
Note that in some cultures, certain professions are expected of a Blue Blood, such as military duty. This trope applies when it is not part of the upper-class culture — either this job or any job.
This may be Truth in Television, especially with how some people earn their fortunes, or philanthropists. Inasmuch as it contrasts the Spoiled Brat trope, it also overlaps it for the person may think wealth is not a purpose, but a tool for their purposes, even if the respective purposes may lack sense. To study and acquire skills which are interesting, but don't pay back is an innocuous example.
A Sister Trope to Royals Who Actually Do Something and Affluent Ascetic. A pursuit of excitement would lead to Gentleman Adventurer. Contrast Spoiled Brat; Rich in Dollars, Poor in Sense; Upper-Class Twit; Idle Rich.

Keqing of Genshin Impact is one of the wealthiest people in Liyue as a member of the Liyue Qixing, yet she is far from afraid to get her hands dirty. She often takes on menial jobs in order to better understand the perspective and needs of the workers, as her personal belief is that strength and knowledge come from experience.

Divya Katdare from Royal Pains is a member of a wealthy, traditional Indian family from England (they summer in the Hamptons — that's how you know they're ludicrously rich: they not only use "summer" as a verb, they cross the Atlantic to do it). She goes ahead and becomes a physician's assistant for HankMed, all the while hiding it from her parents.

X-Men: Sunspot, Brazilian billionaire turned mutant superhero. At one point he's deported back to Brazil and has to temporarily return to a 'regular' rich lifestyle, and he finds that he hates being idle and not helping people. When AIM, in an attempt at becoming an outwardly legitimate organisation whose members the Avengers couldn't legally punch in the face, made themselves a publicly listed company, he performed a hostile takeover and basically performed a massive Mook–Face Turn via bribery and far more pleasant management policies, before running it as his own super-spy organisation. Even when unable to use his powers without Cast from Lifespan thanks to Terrigen poisoning, he casually runs rings around the still evil version of AIM, WHISPER (run by the Maker a.k.a. Evil Reed Richards), and SHIELD, despite being what Maria Hill described as "a lounge lizard with a nasty cough".

Suikoden V has the main character as the Prince of Falena, a youth whose job is basically diplomatic functions, but quickly following a coup where his parents are murdered and he must flee the same fate, becomes leader of an army. It's hinted that, before his mother died, she was preparing him to be a major power player against the Salum Barows and Marscal Godwin. This also extends to his aunt, Sialeeds, who does many of the same things.

Bones
Dr. Hodgins, a.k.a. the "bugs and slime guy," is an heir to the Cantilever Group, a powerful corporation.
Bones herself. She makes enough from her books that moving money to the Caymans makes sense, yet still works with decomposed corpses. Brought up in The Three Bodies in the Book, her publicist would like her to know that she doesn't have to work at the Jeffersonian. Brennan thinks that idea is insane.
In one episode when a funding cut will result in one of the interns having to go, there end up being two "anonymous" monetary donations, each of which is enough to allow the Jeffersonian to keep the intern's position. *Both* Hodgins and Brennan look rather smug when this is announced.

Jack Ryan in The Hunt for Red October. He is considered a more valuable analyst because he has tons of money he gained speculating on the stock market and tons more from marrying the daughter of a multi-millionaire (who herself works as a very high-paid ophthalmologist). The reason that makes him more valuable is that this makes him invulnerable to pressure when he gives an opinion.

The titular heroine of the Honor Harrington series cannily invested much of her prize money from capturing smugglers early in her career, took advantage of the investment opportunities (among other things financing a company set to build domes over cities on the Death World Grayson) when she was made a member of the Grayson nobility, and was awarded some rather rich territory when she became a member of the Manticoran nobility, making her one of the richest people in the Manticoran Star Empire, but she still goes to work as a military officer every day.
Another such character is her valet, who could have easily retired from his share of prize money and his own investments, and the millions he received in her will when she was thought dead (and she refused to accept back) but insisted on retaining his position, even when he officially retired from the navy.

Skye Stark - yes, that Skye - from Sometimes I Hate the Life I Made is the only daughter of one of the richest men in the world. She needn't ever do anything worthwhile. What does she do with her life? First, she becomes an anti-government hacker trying to hold S.H.I.E.L.D. to account, then she becomes a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent herself. The whole premise of the fic is that she is willing to pretend to be a supervillain siding with Ultron in the hope of saving lives.

Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans: This sums up Kudelia Aina Bernstein. Ever since she was a little girl, she's been interested in helping the lower classes of her poverty-stricken home of Mars. And while she's a bit naive in how the world works, one certainly cannot fault her for effort. This results in her becoming a symbol for the oppressed and a heroine of the common people, giving her a measure of political influence that she intends to use to correct the problems in her society.

RWBY's Weiss - despite being the proud, pampered heiress of the Schnee Dust Corporation - is determined to become a Huntress note an elite warrior devoted to slaying Remnant's monsters and do well at Beacon Academy. Most of her conflict with others comes from them not living up to her high standards, instead of the other way around. She's also hinted that she intends to take over and reform the Schnee Corporation in the future, which while it isn't necessarily evil, is known to have some unsavory business policies and practices.

Harry Potter:
Harry has plenty of gold left to him from his parents in his Gringotts vault (inherited from his paternal grandparents, who were old money but his grandfather compounded the wealth by inventing and patenting several potions) but as a kid, he didn't like to rely on that cash. Therefore when he grows up, while he could have become one of the Idle Rich, he instead takes on the job of full-time Auror (Wizard Police). His wife Ginny could likewise have easily stayed at home with him and their three children, but she decides to become a Quidditch star instead, and, once she retires, she keeps working as a Quidditch reporter.
James and Lily Potter count as well. James, due to his parents' wealth, didn't really need to work for a living, but the Potters risked their lives daily to fight Death Eaters for the Order of the Phoenix until they died - and it's stated by Word of God that they were supporting Remus too. Like parents, like child, indeed.
The only time they had to be still was when in hiding from the Death Eaters. James took this harder than Lily, though namely because he couldn't be with his friends (which given the subtle implications they were falling apart and how everything went to hell, is much more serious than it sounds.)

In Daphne Greengrass and the Boy Who Lived, when discussing her future career possibilities, Daphne observes that her parents are rich enough that she doesn't actually need to work herself, even if she still wants to find something she can enjoy doing.

Discworld:
Samuel Vimes following his marriage to Lady Sybil Ramkin, is still a policeman to his core. Lady Sybil herself could also qualify, running a dragon sanctuary out of her home.
Lady Sybil's papa may have left her millions, but she spends the better part of the day in rubber boots and overalls mucking out dragon cages. This doesn't stop her from preferring that Samuel wear his hated official ducal costume. She's probably intended as a parody of those upper-class English ladies with a passion for animals: the Queen, for instance. (Margaret Thatcher was allegedly horrified to find the Queen washing her own dishes.)
Some of the Black Ribboners may qualify, as most are presumed to have accumulated wealth over the centuries, yet now spend much of their time being helpful (or in Otto's case, funny) to show themselves worthy of trust as Friendly Neighborhood Vampires.
In The Truth, William de Worde's father is one of Ankh-Morpork's "old money" aristocrats, but William turned his back on his family's fortune for integrity's sake, even going so far as to reimburse every penny his dad spent on raising him. Ironically, William now exerts more political influence through his newspaper than he could've ever held through wealth.

In The Duellists Armand D'Hubert's eventual father-in-law, the Chevalier du Rivarol, is introduced as a wealthy and gentlemanly old aristocrat... who happens to be a bootmaker who is implied to still regularly pull all night work sessions, because that's the trade he picked up during the French Revolution and he just doesn't feel like stopping. Humorously enough, despite his rather common profession, the Chevalier works while wearing fine clothes under his apron and a fancy wig on his head.

Louise Dimatto of the In Death series is a "New York blueblood" who starts in a free clinic and moves to the Dochas abuse shelter established by Roarke.
Eve herself, from the same series, becomes this after marrying Roarke. She cares absolutely nothing about money, even asking Roarke to take back the fortune he put into her account. He doesn't, but manages to make it a non-issue. She's not above Crimefighting with Cash, initially offering what even she calls a bribe for Dimatto's help, in the book in which the latter is introduced.
Roarke joins in too because it lets him spend time with Eve (as well as forcing her to rest when needed), and because it's fun. She usually tells him to go buy a planet and stay out of her way. Eventually, she usually finds a use for the "expert consultant, civilian".

Most of the nobles in Black Butler have important jobs such as Angelina Durless (AKA Madame Red), who is a doctor, Ciel's father Vincent Phantomhive, who was said in the anime to have done lots of work to help the poor and needy, and Undertaker (give a wild guess as to what he does). Ciel himself works as the Queen's Watchdog, taking care of problems in the criminal underworld (though sometimes the work he does enters more dubious territory).

Soul Eater: Death the Kid. Thanks to being Death's son, and having a privileged position in Death City (Death apparently runs the place, they're clearly rich), Kid could wait for someone else to make him a Death Scythe to use. However, he decides to go the old-fashioned way (and indeed, because of Death the Kid's obsession with symmetry, he ends up with Liz and Patty, the Thompson sisters as his Weapons, so he has to do twice the work technically) and joins the school to do so properly. He becomes an invaluable ally and friend to the rest of the group and he himself matures and overcomes his own faults along with helping his partners overcome their shady pasts.)

PS238: Herschel Clay is implied to be the owner and main stockholder of Clay Industries (which makes sense, since he's eventually revealed to be an expy of Iron Man). His day- night- and apparently only job? A janitor at a grade school, who eventually teaches a shop class as well. At a grade school for superheroes, mind you, but a janitor/shop teacher nonetheless. It's eventually revealed that the entire teaching staff of the school belonged to an old superhero team and had to hang up their capes and become teachers as part of a non-disclosure agreement over an illegally elected metahuman president. Said president became the school's headmaster for good measure.

A good many of the characters in the Vorkosigan Saga. Many are Vor nobility who devote their time to defense, administration, or judging civil and criminal cases, one or two are entrepreneurs or industrialists, the Emperor's wife was a lobbyist from a family of Merchant Princes and the commanders of the Dendarii are mercenaries. Even poor Ivan isn't really idle rich although goodness knows he tries hard enough to be.

While not to the wealth levels of some of the other examples, Joe Bryant played almost a decade with the NBA and then almost another decade in Italy. After that, he coaches basketball internationally, most recently with Rizing Zephyr Fukuoka. His son Kobe didn't have to play b-ball (or do much at all), but he was one of the NBA all-time greats, had contributed to various business start-ups and charitable organizations, and won an Academy Award for Dear Basketball.

Iron Man: Tony Stark. Sure, he attends parties all over the world (though, for understandable reasons, he no longer drinks), gambles, plays sports, and dates glamourous women. Still, the other half of the time, he is either holed up working on some new invention, negotiating deals for his company (sometimes overlapping with the playtime above), putting on a suit of armor and kicking ass for justice or, sometimes, running major government agencies, having been appointed once to head the Defense Department, and later to lead SHIELD.

The Brave Express Might Gaine: The Senpuuji Zaibatsu runs several firms of industry and has accumulated enough resources to not only build a personal army of the world's most advanced battle robots, but to support all of them in combat through mission control or development of other weapon systems. The sole known heir to the fortune, Maito Senpuuji, actively pilots many of the robots in battle himself, while also taking on vigilante activities alongside business work and attending school. Unlike his grandfather, who had an iron-fisted rule and is generally selfish and lavish, Maito is a generous and humble Benevolent Boss who hates opulent spending, meaning any time his grandfather forces himself into the picture causes him no small deal of stress and annoyance.

Jackie Kennedy Onassis became a book editor following the death of her second husband, Aristotle Onassis. The Cartoon History of the Universe is one of her editions (Volume 2, published shortly after her death, was dedicated to her); she also oversaw the translation of the Cairo Trilogy by Egyptian Nobel Laureate Naguib Mahfouz. Both of these were difficult literary undertakings.
Likewise, her two children. Eldest daughter Caroline works as a lawyer, and before kicking it her brother John Jr. worked as a magazine publisher/editor.
The entire Kennedy family (which Jackie married into) was brought up by Joseph Kennedy (John F. Kennedy's father) with the firm notion that it was the duty of the rich to make the world a better place or in other words, Noblesse oblige. Most members went into politics or charity work as a result, and during World War II Robert, John and Joseph Jr. served in the Navy (Ted Kennedy was too young).

Batman: Wayne Enterprises is controlled by Bruce Wayne, who uses his company to do lots of good as a MegaCorp.
Bruce's late father, Thomas Wayne, was a practicing surgeon as well as heir to the biggest fortune in Gotham City, his mother Martha was a social worker. His ancestor Solomon Wayne was a judge and one of the founders of Gotham; bonus points for him being a Self-Made Man.
He raises his son, Damian, to be this way as well. He’s still a kid but he’s been shown to have chores and such like a normal kid, rather than one who’s an heir to two huge fortunes.

In Kat's case, as the youngest of ten, she'd inherit a negligible share of the family company and is also of little interest in Arranged Marriages, and she doesn't want to be a trust fund baby like one of her older sisters.

Our Miss Brooks: Several examples over the course of the series:
In "Mr. Whipple", the titular character is a wealthy entrepreneur who has often worked as a "dollar-a-year" man advising various government agencies.
In the radio episode "Mr. Lathrop Returns to School", Mr. Lathrop is another wealthy entrepreneur. He's left the business world to finish his high school diploma. Hilarity Ensues.
Mr. Stone, the head of the Board of Education. In The Movie Grand Finale, Mr. Conklin notes that Mr. Stone not only owns a prosperous insurance company but has left the running of it to his son.
In the fourth television season, there's siblings Mrs. Winona Nester, Mrs. Ruth Nestor, and Mr. Munsee. They own and operate a private elementary school.
Also in The Movie Grand Finale, there's Mr. Lawrence Nolan, the wealthy newspaper editor and owner of a local television station.

SHIMMER and SHINE menace Made In Sin have ditzy tendencies but tend to be ruthlessly effective at anything they set their minds to and were at least part of Valkyrie's high jacking of the latter promotion. They also like to think of themselves high-class ladies(Allysin Kay especially).

If you're a Rogue Trader in the Warhammer40000 universe, you are less "non-idle" and more "constantly fighting for your life". Rogue Traders are individuals that have been granted a special Warrant of Trade that gives them extraordinary freedoms and rights, allowing them to operate on a scale that normal merchants simply can't. They generally work on the very edges of the Imperium, where they have very little protection from Imperial forces and are thus vulnerable to xenos threats and the legions of Chaos. On the other hand, there are all sorts of riches to be gained from these poorly explored places, including once-colonized planets that became separated from the Imperium, as well as Lost Technology from a bygone era of humanity.
Rogue Traders are among the few people who can accumulate enough wealth to personally own a starship, and each ship employs thousands, or even tens of thousands, of workers. This gets even more ridiculous as a Trader passes his Warrant down to his descendants, creating a Dynasty with enough wealth to purchase entire planets.

One episode of Medabots had our heroes visiting a private school for the fabulously wealthy. One of the students was periodically seen cleaning and doing chores, and everyone assumed that she was a poor girl working off the fees for her education. At the end of the episode, it turned out she was actually the richest student there and owned her own theme park... she just really enjoyed doing housework.

Aria Steelwind from Tyrion Cuthbert: Attorney of the Arcane is the heir to one of the wealthiest and most influential noble houses in Wyverngarde. She could twiddle her thumbs or go into a high position in the army like her father, but she's a prosecutor instead, a job that is considered "lowly" by noble standards. She's also single-handedly investigating a series of strange homicides where the perpetrators seem to have been manipulated into doing it.

Disney comics love this trope:
Scrooge McDuck, in any incarnation. Aside from running his own company, he cannot live without undertaking a ridiculously difficult treasure hunt or a potentially fatal adventure at least twice a week and nearly shows signs of depression if he's idle too long. The Carl Barks comic The Status Seeker, later adapted into an episode of DuckTales (1987), had Scrooge deal with his rich peers looking down on him for not "acting rich."
Before their falling out, Scrooge's sisters could count on his fortune... And ran the company's daily operations while Scrooge was traveling the world to become the world's richest duck. They also followed him in his travels to Panama and Africa, the latter leading to their falling out.
Scrooge's main rival Flintheart Glomgold, who also runs his own company, may show up once in a while trying to one-up Scrooge in a treasure hunt or a difficult adventure, mainly to try and become richer. Unlike Scrooge, Glomgold has no morals and will sink to whatever means to beat Scrooge (yes, he is not above murder.)
Scrooge's other rival John Rockerduck does the same, but that's usually because he wants to one-up Scrooge. He too runs his own company, and is a noted philanthropist. Unlike with Flintheart, John is just a competitive rival to Scrooge, but the two are still affable (contrast to the mutual intense loathing Glomgold and Scrooge have to one another). This also applies to his known relatives:
Rockerduck's father Howard, who built the family fortune from scratch in a gold rush, used to run the family company, routinely inspects the companies he's an investor of, and for 2 cents he may come down and teach you how to be a prospector. The latter two helped to create Scrooge's fortune, as they met during one of Howard's inspections and Scrooge, then inexperienced as a prospector, reacted to his criticism by paying him those 2 cents.
In the late 19th century, Howard's unnamed brother ran a construction firm near Duckburg, with John being one of the foremen. This led to John Rockerduck directing the construction of Scrooge's original Money Bin, as Scrooge hadn't set up his own construction companies in Calisota yet.
Everett Ducklair ran the operations of the company he built from scratch thanks to his inventions. He may have had help running the company (most notably his personal assistant Birgit Q and his analyst Anymore Boring), but he was still CEO... And still developed most of the company's hi-tech products himself.
The series The Amazing Adventures of Fantomius-Gentleman Thief provides three examples:
Lord John Lamont Quackett. The second son of a British duke, he's filthy rich... And took part in World War I as an Ace Pilot. He also moonlights as the title character to punish the hypocrites of Duckburg while playing the part of more Idle Rich character.
Lord Henry Quackett, John's older brother. As the first son of a filthy rich British duke, Henry is just as rich as John, he's slated to become a duke... And works as an architect, having built, among other places, John's American homes and the cathedral of Notre Duck, before disappearing mysteriously.
Andrew Quackett, Henry and John's father. He's a filthy rich British duke and is known to administer his fortune personally while being involved in politics. It's implied that Henry got his work ethic from him and influenced John to get over his slacker phase.
The Italian saga "C'era una Volta... In America" ("Once Upon a Time... In America") provides multiple examples, and turns this into the hat of Mickey's family:
The Micky who first arrived in America built a fortune as a cloth merchant. By definition, he and his son had to work to keep their fortune, and the second one helped to foil a scam from an English lord that would have bankrupted he and the other cloth merchants of Boston, freed the indentured servants that were working for the lord under the same scam, and started cloth manufacturing in America after he and the freed servants seized the machinery of the lord's illegal factory before the soldiers arrived and burned down the building;
The third American Mickey became a trapper, and eventually gave up his fortune to marry the daughter of an Indian chief;
The fourth Mickey, after helping in The American Revolution, ended up becoming a successful cotton planter;
The fifth Mickey left home to run around America. Among other things he did: fought in the Texan Revolution (and would have died at The Alamo had he not been sent away as a messenger right before Santa Ana showed up); worked as a pony express; worked as security for the Union Pacific; been a deputy sheriff (only to find out that his sheriff was much better once he got his glasses right); helped to mark the Chisholm Trail, the latter to help his fiancee to sell her cattle. Then he finally retired... And at some point lost most of it, as when Mickey's father comes around he's not exactly loaded;
The sixth Mickey found oil in the family ranch... Leading to him losing everything to a scam. After that, and becoming a jerk due his friends apparently running away with the last of his money, he loaned some money from a girl who worked in a motel and used it to become one of America's richest men, and ran the company until he retired to marry the motel girl (who had by then become his loyal secretary), while returning a nicer person after a much-needed lesson in humility. Also, he may have triggered The Great Depression, as it's openly stated he sold his company on October 23, the day before the Crash. He later gave a large part of his fortune to charity;
The seventh Mickey, as the son of the above, is filthy rich... And, being the Mickey Mouse, you should already know why he's non-idle
Pip Carson, one of Goofy's relatives, worked for the fifth and sixth Mickeys as the minder of their ranch before leaving when the sixth found oil. He later became rich as the star actor in numerous Western movies... And not only continued acting but when he found out that the sixth Mickey (who had not asked for his help out of pride) was about to marry to seal a business partnership he found the fiancee... And personally discovered evidence that she was a Gold Digger and her alleged father a scammer who had become rich (evidence that an Intrepid Reporter that was his friend gave to the police and made public). And gave Mickey a much-needed beat-up when he decided that the evidence that he and the secretary had given him was fake.

Subverted with Tony Dinozzo of NCIS. His parents come from serious money and his behavior makes it easy to assume that he has plenty of his own money. However, it is later revealed that his father lost most of the money in bad investments and is now merely presenting a facade of being rich. When Tony covers some of his father's bills it's a fairly big expense for him. This was played straight in Tony's early life when his family was still wealthy but he chose to become a Baltimore police officer and then got a job as an NCIS federal agent.

Bruce Wayne in Batman: The Animated Series certainly qualifies, even more so than in other adaptations. Though he still has Lucius Fox to do most of the heavy lifting, Bruce is shown several times to be informed and active in the running of his company, catching onto one of his subordinates violating environmental protection laws, interacting congenially with day-to-day employees, and endowing many charitable causes. In the DC Animated Universe, his reputation as a playboy is as something he does in his free time, rather than constantly, of the "work hard, play hard" variety.

Dennis Farina's character Joe Fontana on Law & Order. There's even a B-story in which Detective Green notes that Fontana dresses in tailored suits, drives a $100,000 car, and lives in a penthouse condo, and wonders how he can afford all that on a cop's salary. Turns out that Fontana's grandfather was the "original Chef Luigi" (a Bland-Name Product version of Chef Boyardee) and Fontana has been living on his share of the family fortune since he was a teenager.

Belgium is even seen as a finances whiz as a little girl nation, before Netherlands started amassing his fortune.

The default background for a PC in Legend of the Five Rings is this. As members of the samurai class, no player ever needs to worry about affording food, shelter, or clothing, and every samurai starts with enough money to sustain a normal person for roughly three to four months (on top of their starting gear). However, every samurai is expected to serve their Clan and the Empire in some capacity, even if it's as simple as negotiating or politicking in the court, and most have at least rudimentary combat training just in case.
Of particular note are the Crab Clan, who are tasked with the duty of defending Rokugan from the Shadowlands. Due to the constant influx of goblins, oni, gaki, and other malevolent creatures, the Crab Clan have essentially been at constant war since the founding of their Clan, and field the largest army of all the Clans as a result. And command positions are always filled by samurai.
Subverted if you're a ronin. Lacking proper Clan status, ronin do not possess nearly the same rights and benefits as a regular samurai, although they do tend to be somewhat better off than the average peasant.

Amanda Carey in Hurricanes. She could have simply sold the soccer team she inherited from her father or let someone manage it for her and it's a miracle she's not forced to do either, considering she's a teenager.

In the Aunt Dimity series, Dimity founded and ran her Westwood Trust ("an umbrella organization for a number of different charities"), which Lori later heads in her place. Both Lori and Dimity also did hands-on volunteer work; some of the novels' plots involve such work. In Aunt Dimity and the Duke, Grayson's grandmother (wife of the twelfth Duke of Penford) was on the board of Dimity's trust, and the secretly wealthy members of Grayson's staff include a novelist and a fashion designer.

Child of the Storm:
Tony Stark, as per canon, being Iron Man - and though Pepper runs Stark Industries, he's still heavily involved.
Harry, also as per canon, is initially an Action Survivor, later an Action Hero and Guile Hero, and most certainly a royal who does things. He's also this, since his father, Thor (who had been incarnated as James Potter in a first run at the whole 'humility' thing), basically let him have at it with the Potter inheritance. Since his mortal grandfather, Charlus Potter, met Howard Stark during WWII and was impressed enough to make some canny investments, this means that he's effectively a billionaire, even aside from whatever Asgardian wealth he has. As in canon, he mostly finds it rather embarrassing and tries not to dwell on it too much - though in the sequel, he mentions that he offered to replace the X-Men's jet, a modified SR-71 Blackbird. Only 32 unmodified Blackbirds were ever made, and they each cost the equivalent of $277 million.
Xavier, who turned down the offer, is also pretty (extremely) wealthy, in between running a school for mutants, acting as the Big Good for mutantkind and a general adviser on all superhuman affairs, and even being an occasional therapist. Oh, and he squeezes in a few telepathic battles, too.

Vince McMahon could have stayed behind the scenes running the WWE without ever appearing on television. Instead, he's done everything from ringside commentating on WWE shows to personally testing safety equipment to personally competing in wrestling matches himself at an age when many men would be thinking about retirement. A lifelong amateur bodybuilder, even in his seventies he has a physique that would shame most men half his age. His children Shane and Stephanie followed in his footsteps, appearing as characters and competing in their own grueling wrestling matches, Shane in particular notorious for his borderline insane stunts involving him jumping off high places onto someone else.

Chest: Duke Sweet Capulet starts as a downplayed Idle Rich, but grows into this trope. He does his bare minimum duties as a noble overlooking his territory, but he doesn't get involved in political power struggles like other nobles. However, when Zong turns him back into a human, Capulet decides to go on a journey to find the three other people who transformed into chests. He also uses his government connections to look for Tole's parents and reunite the family. By the end of the game, his citizens state that he's a lot more active in interacting with them and managing the smaller details of Othello Town.

Sailor Moon:
Yuichiro Kumada comes from a very wealthy family but works regularly, eventually taking a steady job as a "chore boy" at the shrine Rei's grandfather owns. Partly because he liked Rei and partly because he's ashamed of his rich, self-absorbed family.
There's also Ami/Sailor Mercury's mother Saeko, who also comes from a very wealthy family but works full-time as a doctor. Ami herself intends to follow this path as well.
In the manga, Rei's father Takashi Hino is not only stinking rich but he's also a very important politician. Problem is, he is also incredibly neglectful so Rei far prefers to live with her maternal grandfather at the shrine.

Kengan Ashura has Sayaka and Retsudo Katahara. Being the children of the chairman of the Kengan Association and one of the richest men in Japan, the two can live in comfortable luxury without doing anything, but both work in the Kengan Association respectively as an announcer and The Captain of the security taskforce. Sayaka frequently works together with people who are far less privileged (e.g. fellow announcer Jerry) and isn't shown to exercise any more power or authority than any regular employee with the same position. Retsudo does regularly exercise authority as a Commander, but he's more than earned his position, and he takes his duties as missions as seriously as his subordinates do—working just as hard, if not more, than them to ensure safety.

The point of The Philanthropist. Teddy wasn't always so hands-on. It starts in the pilot by accident and since then, he prefers to get personally involved instead of just cutting a check. Naturally, the board of directors is very concerned that the face of their company (not to mention a part-owner) is risking his life somewhere instead of doing his job and looking pretty on camera.

The Cat Who... Series:
In book #6 (The Cat Who Played Post Office), when Qwilleran first inherits his billions, he is horrified because he has never needed a great amount of possessions to be happy and loathes the idea of living in a huge mansion with servants. He quickly establishes the Klingenschoen Foundation to dispose of the vast majority of the unwanted fortune; the K-Fund provides grants for small businesses and locals in need.
In book #8 (The Cat Who Sniffed Glue), continuing in this role, Qwill helps to found a more full-featured newspaper in his new hometown of Pickax, whose newspaper was previously stuck in the 19th century.

He's placed his sons in high positions of power in the company (though they don't deserve them) and his daughter has a career as a campaign manager for the Democratic Party. Only his eldest son Connor "does nothing," though Connor resents this description.
