Challenge Your Worldview
You know how we always complain as students and AIESECers that we just aren't making enough $$$?
Check out this website: http://www.globalrichlist.com/index.php and hopefully this will shed some light on this perspective.
Thanks to sending this to me Juan!

haha! indeed this would have been far more effective as a perspective inducing exercise if I wasn't in the position to quite honestly enter£$€0000 into the box ;) I wonder is there some way to quantify my @XP, I'm sure that would bump me up a little on the ladder!
hugs to canada :) I hear there is two feet of snow in edmonton :)

Hi John!
Well, just to add a little note for that money ranking, it's far more better to have a look at human development indice (HDI) ranking! [canada is 6th, cool! http://hdr.undp.org/hdr2006/statistics/]
(and by the way it's certainly not a purchaisin power parity (ppp) salary...) [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purchasing_power_parity]
Beside that, thanks for this link, the concept of the website is great, so let's raise awarness about that...again and again!
And whatever you earn, give! A dollar a day, keeps poverty away!
