"How Rich Are You" Calculator

Ahh, . . . the reader can now find out where he stands among the 99%, . . . or, perhaps, even the 1%, . . . in the USA.

One need only click "income" and enter one's income to find where he stands among his fellow citizens in earnings.
And one need only click "wealth" and enter one's net worth to find out where he stands among his fellow citizens in wealth.

It's here: The Wealth Report (on the right side of the page).

DonDiego hopes everyone is pleasantly surprised.

In Appalacia I'm in the top tier.
I'm incognito and drink cheap beer.
They don't know I was an engineer.
Just as long as they don't think me queer.
Got a wife some might call a cougar.
Don't come to my house and cause no trouble cause I got a Ruger.

I believe wealth is measured by health and happiness.

I am very rich.

I like the attached article. Time for these rich bastards to start paying up!

Once that happens, I need to move to someplace like Appalachia or Texas where I can live like a king.

........ opened the site,

and failed to see the place where I can enter in all my drums and guitars ????

By the calculators readings:

1:4 households in this country make 20k or less per year. Thats households, not individuals.

Those housholds have nobody to blame but themselves. They need to get off their collective lazy butts and get a better job at Citibank. This is America afterall.

Since Don Diego often enlightens us to the sullen and bleak things in our lives,

I am wondering just why he didn't title his thread "How Poor are You" Calculator.


Could it be that maybe Don Diego has a New Year's Resolution to be just a tad more optimistic starting in 2012 ????



HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY !!!!

A total misnomer. It might tell you what your income and worth is relative to "all tax filing units" but doesn't begin to tell the full story.

If a person happens to be in the top 90+% of income earners, it still doesn't mean that they're wealthy or bound to retire with any more money than perhaps someone earning 1/2 of what they do.

It reminds me of the days when GM was a huge company but hemmoraging money. It's not what you make but what you keep (save) that is more indicative of where you are financially.

ummmm....Rock'n Rick....I would venture to say that the title was taken from something he read online, because I can tell you from FIRST-HAND EXPERIENCE that he ENJOYS the sullen and bleak and he would not make a resolution to become a tad more optimistic. He would not do something so against his nature.

Besides....I'm happy enough for the both of us. Between the two of us, we are a 'normal, functioning, semi-pessimistic/semi-optimistic' entity!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! (See, I think those Mayans have it ALL WRONG)
