An ending trope, where the protagonists become rich. Usually, the writers want to avoid the Hard Truth Aesop that money can buy happiness, so this is only added after the generic Happy Ending tropes, such as love, or family, so it is not actually money that makes them happy, but it surely doesn't hurt either. It might be an example of Sweet and Sour Grapes, if the characters just learned the Aesop that there are more important things than money, but they get rich anyways. Compare If I Were a Rich Man. The Standard Hero Reward can overlap, as being given half the kingdom tends to make someone wealthy. As this is an Ending Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. |

Night Watch Discworld: Supporting character Doctor Lawn (whose character is a parody of exactly who you'd expect), a man who's spent many years barely scraping by despite being a damn good doctor because his medical knowledge is ahead of its time and at odds with the current scientific consensus, finally gets his chance to shine when he's called upon to save the Duchess of Ankh from Death by Childbirth. Not only does he become the toast of the town with enough professional clout to make people take him seriously, the grateful Duke personally hands him an enormous sum of money. On the condition that he keeps quiet about the Time Travel shenanigans said Duke got dragged into, which is how they first met several decades ago. By the time he pops up again in Going Postal he's a lot more mellow. | |

By the end of Mara, Daughter of the Nile, Mara has realized that there are things that are far more important to her then freedom and gold, her motivations at the beginning. However, she ends up receiving both of them anyway, one through a boon of the new king, and the other through marrying her love, Count Sheftu. | |

In The Belgariad, Loveable Rogue Silk exploits the end of the war between the Angarak nations and the West to establish an international trade consortium with a like-minded Angarak partner. By the Malloreon sequel series, he's one of the richest people on the planet... although to him, the real reward is in the game of commerce, and the money is just an incidental way of keeping score. | |

When Marty McFly fixes his parents' past in Back to the Future, he returns to a present where his father George is a wealthy science fiction author. Interestingly this ending didn't sit right with Crispin Glover (George's actor), who felt it sent the wrong message and didn't return for the sequels. | |

Played straight in the Amazing Stories episode "Gather Ye Acorns". A small elf tells a kid to forget about studying to be a doctor and that hard work is not a virtue. "There's doctors aplenty is this world," he says, "What we could truly do with is a few more dreamers." We switch from 1932 to 1938 and he winds up spending all his hard-earned money on a fancy car. His dad is a little peeved, to say the least, and boots him out of the house. Years go by and the boy is now old, broke, friendless, homeless and trying to beg for enough money to gas up his car to commit suicide with it. But a wealthy lady notices some collector's piece in his collection of junk and offers him $10,000 for it. Cut to him now wealthy from selling all his childhood collectables. It turns out that all his artifacts are worth millions. This is treated as a happy ending. | |

Many heist movies (Ocean's Eleven,note the remake, not the original, this being a case where the Hays Code arguably resulted in a more satisfying ending anyway, Fast Five, The Italian Job (2003) for example) end with the (surviving) members of the crew reaping the rewards of their heist. | |

In Atlantis: The Lost Empire, the real reason why the explorers went to Atlantis is just so they can help the villain become rich. However, at the end of the film, said explorers turn to the hero to stop said villain and save Atlantis, yet they still end up rich because of this, judging by their clothing the last time we see them. It's implied that the Atlanteans are quite wealthy, by normal standards. However, because their city is isolated and in ruins they've come to consider things like food and creature comforts more important than treasure. Given that the explorers saved Atlantis at great personal risk, it makes sense that the city's people would reward them. | |

National Treasure had the museums paying 1% of the treasure's value to the protagonists. It was stated a few times the treasure was worth about $10 billion US dollarsnote which is an extremely conservative estimate, given what they recovered in gold alone, not to mention the cultural and historical value, so even 1% set them for life. | |

Battle Royale has the government support the winner of each battle royale with a lot of money to settle with. Shogo admits that he's got enough money to not have to worry about, but admits that it's 'a lot less' than advertised. Given how the book's latest round ended, with two survivors escaping the game, Shuuya and Noriko are obviously not given money. | |

This would have been the ending to Only Fools and Horses, if it hadn't been brought back five years later. But at least it allowed Rodney to find out who his real father is, and become a father himself. Played as a very slightly Bittersweet Ending, surprisingly, as Del-Boy gloomily reflects on every Zany Scheme and desperate hustle Rodney and himself have been through just trying to keep food on the table and a roof over their heads when all this time there's been a ridiculously valuable antique watch gathering dust in the cupboard all along and wonders if it was All for Nothing. | |

The Hobbit has Bilbo returning to Hobbiton rich, although he could take home much more treasure if he felt it worth the bother. | |
