Using the Bloomberg Billionaire API is super easy. Simply fetch the list of Billionaires as follows:
var fetch = require('bloombill').fetch;
fetch(function(err, list) {
// list is an array of people if error is non-null
});
The people will have the following fields:
- name - the name of the person
- net - the net-worth of the person in USD
- last - the net-gain of the person's net-worth in the last day
- ytd - the net-gain of the person's net-worth since the beginning of the year
- last_rel - the fraction of the person's net-worth contained by last
- ytd_rel - like last_rel, but for ytd
