How Rich Are You?

A little test to give you some global perspective (and guilt you into donating money.)

I was a little surprised to be in the top 1% in the world. It seems like I'm always paying bills so I never feel like I have any money. I have lived in a 3rd world country so I know how bad it can get. Of course it won't stop my from driving my car across the street to get a big fat Chipotle burrito.

However, if the 60 seconds I took to post this URL touches just one of you enough to make a positive difference in this world then I will sleep better at night.

According to my family income...

Dude I put $5000 a year for some giggles and it said I was in the top 14% lol. That's not a very accurate scale since 5000 a year is seriously below the poverty line in any western nation.

But I do feel like I should donate some money for Honduran farmers now ; ;

[Killgannon]

i only make 24k ish a year and im in the top 10%? =/ ok sure but still i aint donating shit cause i aint got shit left over after bills =/

Nice, it told me I could buy fruit trees in Honduras.

A great number of people in China subside on 100 USD a month. (Thats considered a good salary as well).

This is a more interactive way of showing relative wealth in the world. If I recall correctly, a previous world wealth survey found that if you had over 2k USD to your name you were in the top 50% of the world. Those of you amazed that you're so high with what seems like a pitiful amount of money should check how far your monthly income might go in some other countries, you could live like kings.

Attendants with palm frawns?

[rithridan]

richest people in the world!

I'm fucking poor.....

[Priran]

If you make 55 pounds a year, you are the 591,211,542,8.6th richest person in the world. You also suck at math and sold four tenths of your soul to the devil.

[arlania]

Chinese using antifreeze in dog food as a flavor substitute to make a extra American penny a day. No, the perception of wealth is not skewed.

[Dustinsp]

Woot i'm rich!!!!!!!!
and i still strangly don't give a shit about donating money to that

[Exoduso]

lol, it's bullcrap but it claims i'm in the top 0.01...

[Skyylya]

It's not skewed, but it's not all relative either. I might be in the top 10% of the worlds wealth, but I am most likely in the bottom 30-40% in my own country and not exactly living the high life.

[Feielle]

Looks like the median point is $850 a year.

Shit, I make that in a week...
