Input your income and be ranked against the other 6.7 billion people on this mudball. Sure 50 millionth doesn't sound great, until you realize that you're in the top %1.
An even six figures US ($100,000) ranks 39,615,049 or %0.66
Heck, $24,000 puts you in the TOP 10.29%
I'm the very top guy on the chart...in the top 1% . . .

I was at the very top of the chart too, and then I was like, "wait a second." I support 3 other people who have zero income. So I divided my annual income by 4 and plugged that in. Now I'm in the top 13%.
DID YOU KNOW..?
Microsoft CEO Bill Gates has more wealth than the bottom 45 percent of American households combined.
Also, he pays infinitely more income taxes than all of them combined
INFINITELY MORE,
they pay ZERO.
I'm $1200.00 short of being in the top 10% of the world.
Interesting, but it does sound more like a marketing scheme to get people to donate to some organization. Guilt is not really a great motivator when it comes to charity.
As a test, I put in various amounts from $201,000 to $200,000,000 and they all were in the position 107,565. I think their calculations are suspect.
EDIT: I just looked at their methodology - it's based on assumptions about assumptions about very old data.
I'm in top 11.5%
Another two grand a year and, come the revolution, you'd have to put yourself against the wall.. :)
:(
I was raked all the way on the left
