    This is totally legit.
    To have that on that site it asks if your Warren Buffett and you have to have over 89 billion dollars try again.

    Top 5.07% based on income....yeah, bullshit. I barely make enough money to remain alive despite working my ass off. Top 40% at best is more like it, but I suppose it is factoring in children, third world nations and people that don't work at all which is a pretty big difference, I suppose.

    No. $55k is well above average for a single person in the US. Higher than nearly 80% of the American public. It's probably average for the middle class, though.

    Yeah, that's what "in the world" means and sort of the entire point of the site. Or did you somehow miss all the comparisons?

    Just by virtue of being people with computer and internet access, nearly everyone here is probably going to be in the top 5%.

    Even looking outside of the confines of pure income, we're still some of the wealthiest people on earth by virtue of having access to commodies like clean water, eletricity, plumbing, et cetera - not even counting things like emergency medical care, social aide programs, etc. In that regard, even the homeless in most western countries are "richer" than the rest of the world.

    -Based on income-
    You’re in the top 49.99%

    That makes you the
    3,343,012,569th richest person on earth by income.

    I don't have an income nor benefits so based my income on 10.000 swe/kr to represent gifts/food and other stuff I get during a year.

    -Based on wealth-

    You’re in the top 1.38%

    That makes you the
    63,456,618th richest person on earth.

    And we can now very easily conclude that this thing is a sham.

    You’re in the top 0.51% richest people in the world by income. That makes you the 33,982,065th richest person on earth by income.

    1% of your wealth could feed a family of four in Ethiopia for 2 years.

    Yes, they were very eager to remind me that I earn about 0.30 kr/hour more than a laborer in Zimbabwe. xD

    It takes me 1m40s to earn enough money to buy a coke. No indication for how long to buy a kilo of coke though.
