Wealth percentile

Am I rich?

Enter what you own minus what you owe. We place you among the world's 5.4 billion adults, and next to the typical net worth for your age.

Between $10,000 and $100,000: 32.8% of adults.

About $8,700 to your name puts you in the richer half of the world's adults, and $100,000 in the top 15%. Rich is relative, though: in Dubai or Zurich the same sum buys far less than in Cairo or Manila.

How we work out your percentile

We use the wealth pyramid from the UBS Global Wealth Report 2023: 52.5% of adults have under $10,000, 32.8% have $10,000 to $100,000, 13.6% have $100,000 to $1 million, and 1.1% are dollar millionaires. Between those points we draw a smooth curve, so your exact percentile is an estimate.

The age comparison uses the median family net worth by age from the US Federal Reserve's 2022 Survey of Consumer Finances, the best detailed data available. Currencies are converted at fixed approximate rates (the dirham and riyal are pegged to the dollar).

What counts as net worth?

Everything you own (cash, investments, pension pots, end of service owed to you, property and cars at what they would sell for) minus everything you owe (mortgage, loans, cards).

Questions people ask

How much money do you need to be in the top 1%?

Roughly $1 million or more in net worth puts you among the 1.1% of adults who are dollar millionaires.

What is the median wealth in the world?

About $8,700 per adult (UBS Global Wealth Report 2023). Half the world's adults have less.

Is net worth the same as income?

No. Net worth is what you own minus what you owe at one moment; income is what you earn each year. This calculator ranks wealth.
