Re: How rich are you?
Not rich at all Coggy, going by that I'm 768,727,124 rich. It is thought provoking that even in this day and age, there are still people out there, who are so desperately poor, and are dying for want of food, and decent health care. There are things more precious that money. Good health and friends are priceless.

Re: How rich are you?
46,272,580 - in the top 0.77%
Bit of a guilt trip site - '99% of the world are poorer than you', but interesting.

Re: How rich are you?
Even if you earn zero it seems your still in the top 13.88%.
I actually did ok to begin with and started out in the top 5% but then i took the wife and kids into account and by time i calculated what i had left each month i ended up in the bottom 5%...

According to UN definitions, absolute poverty is having to exist on one dollar or less per day. Approximately 1 billion people, or one in six of the world population live at or below absolute poverty.

Re: How rich are you?
Thought provoking, but I'd hazard to guess even these folks would rank quite highly on that site:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/c...re/8368312.stm
And I wouldn't like to tell them to their faces that they're 'rich'.
Ultimately this site's little more than an online guilt-trip that provides nothing in the way of context.

Re: How rich are you?
Most of us are probably far better off than we actually realize.

Re: How rich are you?
Like Aragorn I am in the top 1%. That result has put me on a total guilt trip though it only shows half the story as it doesn't take any account of even very basic living expenses.

Re: How rich are you?
Total Household Earnings make me...
You are the 59,642,826 richest person in the world! You're in the TOP 0.99%
richest people in the world
---------- Post added at 11:57 ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 ----------
I don't feel guilty at all... I work to earn what I earn. I'd feel guilty if I was in the richest 1% and not working at all
