The rich list is not a pimp list.
It's pretty compelling social commentary to me. I named the thread How Rich Are You because I knew it would draw more views than Compelling Social Commentary.
Percentage of world population Percentage of world income Yearly individual income Daily individual income
Bottom 10 percent 0.8 $400 $1,10
Bottom 20 percent 2.0 $500 $1,37
Bottom 50 percent 8.5 $850 $2,33
Bottom 75 percent 22.3 $1,487 $4,07
Bottom 85 percent 37.1 $2,182 $5,98
Top 10 percent 50.8 $25,400 $69,59
Top 5 percent 33.7 $33,700 $92,33
Top 1 percent 9.5 $47,500 $130,14
It makes me consider moving from the US even more than I already do, which is multiple times daily.
Most of us could take what we make and live like kings in places like Belize.
