Ally with sauron. That's what they were scared of before his death. Why did he die so easy?

If all of the events occurred as depicted in the Hobbit, but Smaug happened to survive through it all?

He'd probably have burned down most of the land searching for the arkenstone and killed gandalf or something.

Would have lead the Nazgul and wrecked everyone's shit

This.
Maybe if word reached him that some hobbit had The One Ring, he'd have gotten off his scaly ass long enough to find and eat Frodo, before casually tossing the One Right into the shiniest part of his hoard, then he would have gone back to sleeping on his gold.

Not give a fuck and accumulate more riches, spending 80% of time sleeping

>>86495821
Did Smaug keep all his assets "in the mattress" (quite literally)? Was this a tax evasion scheme?
did he have a portfolio?

Join Sauron and rule all the mountains. Or even better, join Saruman and rule a lot more.

These are the questions people should be asking.

It's the fact questions like these go unanswered that I'm not interested in these books.
