# You are in the top 96.33% richest people in the world.
There are 219,759,036 people poorer than you.
How do you feel about that? A bit richer we hope. Please consider donating just a small amount to help some of the poorest people in the world. Many of their lives could be improved dramatically or even saved if you donate just one hour's salary (approx £0.06)

Oh, and in case you’re interested you are the 5,780,240,964 richest person in the world.


should i be proud?

# Hahahaha
If you tell them you earn £0 annually they say:
"If this is the case you would be one of the billions of people who earn less than $2 a day. Typically you would also not have access to a computer or an Internet connection.

If you are earning less than $90 a year it¹d be unfair to ask you to donate money to Care International ­ if however, you actually earn more than this it may be worth re-calculating your position."

...Or put briefly "stop mucking about and give us the fucking money".

# Not all that surprised
it's a bit dull, and a bit pointless.
I could go on about the concept of relative poverty, and earnings in relation to the cost of living, but I'd even bore myself.

# Hm....
It calculates my hourly rate completely incorrectly. I'm not giving money to those eejits.
And they can't spell "annual". Cunts.
