    1. The per capita wealth versus per capita income, as well as national wealth versus GDP, numbers are really interesting. I wonder if, perhaps counterintuitively, low wealth, high income is better at a national level as it implies lower property values and therefore lower cost of living?

      The Germans seem to have a fairly easy time affording to live decently, whereas that’s not really the case in Japan or America despite them being wealthier.

    2. DangerousImplication on

      Why is median wealth per adult higher than the mean(avg gdp/capita) in all cases? I would’ve assumed the opposite given wealth inequality.

    3. The secondary education number seemed off to me. I think this chart is showing enrollment % not who has completed that level (at least that’s what a quick search on US numbers shows)
