This is quite interesting. And a little humbling as well. Even the year we made next to nothing (in our estimation) and required all sorts of help just to cover the "necessities" we were still making more money than over 75% of the people in the world. Yeah, we can make comparisons in cost of living and all that, but the truth is that when you look worldwide the "top 1%" includes a great many Americans. How different could attitudes be if we considered how wealthy we are as a nation and even as individuals, rather than focusing only on how much more we want. http://ift.tt/esnLXq
