Wealthy place, so Dora can get dole out of it (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eldorado

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'wealthy place' is the definition.
'Eldorado' can be an answer for 'place' (mythical golden city). I'm not certain of the 'wealthy' bit.

'dora can get dole out of it' is the wordplay.
'can' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'canned' mean this (canned can mean drunk)).
'get' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'out of it' is an anagram indicator (out of it can mean confused or distracted).
'dora' with letters rearranged gives 'orad'.
'dole' is an anagram of 'eldo'.
'orad' going within 'eldo' is 'ELDORADO'.

'so' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for eldorado that I've seen before include "city, apparently lost" , "source of wealth" , "The golden land?" , "rich land, so many thought" , "city of riches" .)
