Income levels if the world was an island

29 December 2024

If we imagine the world 🌍 as an island 🏝️ of 100 people....

😢 57 people live on $10 per day or less ($3 650 per year)

🙂 27 people live on $20 per day or more ($7 300 per year) - this is the middle class in many developing countries.

😃 16 people live on $40 per day or more ($14 600 per year).

If you are an educated professional reading this, you are probably 1 of the 16 people on the island 🏝️.
