The displayed integer is the rounded NWM calculation, not a measured individual census rank. Source-bin resolution is not a confidence interval. At zero, shared competition rank starts the tie group; no personal midpoint is assigned.
- Source: World Inequality Database, net personal wealth thresholds (thweal992j) for adults 20+, with household wealth split equally among adult household members. 2024 distribution, 2025 prices; world at market exchange rates.
- Between the source’s percentiles we interpolate (logarithmic between positive thresholds, linear otherwise). This is our choice, not WID’s. Below p1 and above p99.999 we show only a bound.
- World/all ages uses owner-selected conditional scenario B for under-20s: 2% negative, 50% exactly zero, 48% positive net wealth. Assumed conditional medians: $100 debt magnitude and $1,000 positive wealth in 2025 USD; exponential magnitudes within the adult source's supported range, monotonic bounds outside it. These are assumptions, not measured youth statistics or calibrated accuracy. The adult household allocation can overlap youth-owned assets; this is a comparison convention, not an ownership-reconciled balance sheet. Country comparisons retain the under-20-zero convention; adults 20+ are unchanged.
- World: G = A × (1 − F_adult) + (P − A) × S_youth. For w < 0, S_youth = 1 − 0.02 × exp(w × ln(2)/100); for w ≥ 0, S_youth = 0.48 × exp(−w × ln(2)/1000), with w in reference USD. At zero the youth tie mass is 0.50 × (P − A). Rank = 1 + G; tie end = G + tie mass; top = 100 × G/P. Outside supported adult thresholds, youth survival is bounded, not extrapolated. Countries keep S_youth = 1 for negative wealth, 0 for positive wealth and a full youth zero tie.
- A single wealth number does not by itself establish quality of life, security or happiness. It’s one coordinate, not a verdict, and it is not your capital ratio K.
- The entered amount is compared numerically using the 2025 reference price/FX basis. This is not a live 2026 valuation or an inflation- or asset-price-adjusted estimate.
- WID’s wealth concept may differ from your own list (e.g. consumer durables). Enter your net worth as you understand it; we don’t remove anything.
