About This Ranking

The oldest billionaires have accumulated wealth over multiple market cycles, recessions, and structural shifts in the global economy. Many started their companies in the 1950s–1970s and have retained large equity stakes over decades of compounding. Their longevity — both personal and financial — offers lessons in how great businesses can endure across generations.

All net worth figures are estimated from publicly available data including SEC filings, stock exchange prices, and company financial reports. Rankings are updated daily. Read our full methodology.
