About

A list of people who said so.

RICHLIST is a public register of rich people who put themselves on it. Nobody is checked. The price is the only filter there is, and it is not a cheap one.

What it actually is

Every rich list you have read is a stranger's estimate of someone else's money. Reporters phone around, apply a multiple to a company nobody has audited, guess at the property, subtract a debt they half know about, and print a number to the nearest million. It looks like arithmetic. It is a well-dressed guess.

This site does the opposite and says so. People declare their own wealth, pay to be listed, and the declaration is published under their name with our working shown. We price what they declared against the real market. We do not check whether any of it is true, and we never will.

Why anybody would pay for that

Because the price is the point. At a few dollars this would be a novelty anyone could buy into and the list would mean nothing. Priced properly, the cost does the filtering that verification pretends to do elsewhere: we still check nobody, we simply charge enough that you would have to be comfortable to find it reasonable.

It is the one claim on this site that needs no verification at all, because it is true by construction. Everything else here is a person's word.

What it is not

  • Not a verification service. No listing has been confirmed against anything.
  • Not financial advice, an offer, or a solicitation of any kind.
  • Not a credit reference, a background check, or proof of funds.
  • Not connected to any bank or broker. We ask for no credentials, ever.
  • Not a directory of real public figures. Everyone here put themselves here.

The rules we hold ourselves to

  • The word verified never appears beside a person.
  • No invented members, no inflated counters, no fake activity. Real numbers or none.
  • Every figure carries where it came from and when it was priced.
  • Impersonating a real public figure is removed and refunded, without argument.
  • Country and region only. We never publish a city, an address, or a device location.
  • A rejection always refunds in full, automatically. We never keep the money.

The long version of how a figure is produced is on the methodology page, published before there is a single number on this site to distrust.

Where it is up to

Being built in public, in the open, with the unfinished parts labelled as unfinished rather than hidden. Some sections are not written yet and say so when you reach them. Nothing on this site pretends to be further along than it is.
