Tani Benguigui Net Worth is $334.5 Billion on Forbes and is $348 Billion on The Bloomberg Billionaire Index 96.60.168.239 (talk) 01:30, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article starts “The World’s Billionaires is an annual ranking…”. Next edition due March 2025. Edwardx (talk) 14:35, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah. Elon is at nearly 400 Billion. That must be corrected. 2600:4040:7D43:2900:E2C3:9DFD:51BC:AD2D (talk) 16:38, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The Jensen Huang page lists him as having a $164B net worth and makes him the 6th richest individual in 2025, citing Forbes. It also links to this page, but then he is not listed in the 2025 top 10 here. IMO these should be brought into alignment? Z (talk) 14:04, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Given that Satoshi Nakamoto is easily on the top ten list, should we not include him here? Are we only republishing the Forbes Top 10 list, or are we taking other sources as well. Here is one from Times of India. I am sure there are more sources as well, wondering more right now what is the sourcing procedure for this article, are we just using the published lists, or are we compiling from separate sources if sources indicate that there is an omission here at Forbes? Or is this just a repost of the forbes list each year? Jtbobwaysf (talk) 07:18, 20 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please read the first sentence. It is all very clear. Edwardx (talk) 09:31, 20 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

i also agree with you that Satoshi nakamoto should be on it but we don’t know exactly how much he has and the amount of Bitcoin he has is unknown it is within a range but it is big and the price of Bitcoin is always changing so it would be hard to add in Jaypet12 (talk) 15:25, 3 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I propose to split the ranking part for every decade as this article reaching it’s limit and that could be meaningful. Like List of world billionaire’s (2010-19) Abdullah1099 (talk) 07:18, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Elon musk also owns Twitter not just Tesla and spaceX Weiuweifjwf (talk) 22:49, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously, the people in the article often own many, many companies. This list is based on an annual publication by Forbes, and they do list those two entities as the primary companies for Mr. Musk. If they include it in the next publication, we’ll add it to the entry for that year. Sam Kuru (talk) 23:01, 3 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
