REAL-TIME BILLIONAIRES — FAQ
How often is the Real-Time Billionaires Tracker updated?+
The tracker refreshes every 15 minutes. Net worth figures are pulled from Forbes’ real-time data through a server-side proxy and held in a 15-minute memory cache, so the numbers stay current without ever overloading the upstream source.
Where does the billionaire net worth data come from?+
All figures come from Forbes’ Real-Time Billionaires data feed. We fetch it server-side, convert the raw values to clean billions, and cache the result. If Forbes is briefly unreachable, the last good snapshot is served automatically.
Who is the richest person in the world right now?+
The tracker ranks the world’s wealthiest people live by current net worth, with the top spot updating automatically as markets and currencies move. See the list above for the current number-one and the full top standings.
Can I embed the billionaires list on my own website?+
