- stuxnet79Note that some of the entries here are clearly outdated. I've cycled through some "global south" countries that I'm familiar with and what's shown may have been true maybe 15-20 years ago. GDP has 4x since then and at the same salary level the lifestyle is either equivalent or better than the richer countries.
- onraglanroadTo give context on my other comments, where I live in Scotland, median full time wage is around $55k.You can live a perfectly comfortable life on that; you don't have to worry about bills or medical expenses, and you can afford to get a mortgage and buy a house (probably costing around $300k or so)That's why I'm surprised about people from a richer nation saying they can't afford things.
- forshaperI've generally loved this site. Wondering what other distributions could be made so visual, where people near the top complain about the people just above them.
- smusamashahClick the Families dropdown. There are many other things, including beds, pets, toys and teeth.
- joncpWhoa, nice reminder of how filthy rich I and almost everyone I know are.
- scotty79Modern lifestyle seems to start at $700-$800 per month per adult pretty much everywhere and doesn't get much better even at few k.
- qurrenIt's interesting that $14000/month is "rich" on this website, and some people earning $100/month actually own houses.Meanwhile people making $50000/month in San Francisco can't afford a house because half of it is taxed away and housing is astronomically expensive.
