Global Rich List - How rich are you? - Nov 21, 2007 19:30
Compared to the rest of the world?

Visit this site
Enter your annual income
And you get to know your place on the list


$8 could buy you 15 organic apples OR 25 fruit trees for farmers in Honduras to grow and sell fruit at their local market.

$30 could buy you an ER DVD Boxset OR a First Aid kit for a village in Haiti.

$73 could buy you a new mobile phone OR a new mobile health clinic to care for AIDS orphans in Uganda.

$2400 could buy you a second generation High Definition TV OR schooling for an entire generation of school children in an Angolan village.

DID YOU KNOW..?

Three decades ago, the people in well-to-do countries were 30 times better off than those in countries where the poorest 20 percent of the world' s people live. By 1998, this gap had widened to 82 times.
