NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- The United States holds a disproportionate amount of the world's rich people.
It only takes $34,000 a year, after taxes, to be among the richest 1% in the world. That's for each person living under the same roof, including children. (So a family of four, for example, needs to make $136,000.)
So where do these lucky rich people live? About half of them -- 29 million -- live in the United States, according to calculations by World Bank economist Branko Milanovic in his book The Haves and the Have-Nots.
Another four million live in Germany. The rest are mainly scattered throughout Europe, Latin America and a few Asian countries. Statistically speaking, none live in Africa, China or India despite those being some of the most populous areas of the world.
****
Wonder if we'll see all of Africa/China/India outside our doorsteps with protester signs soon...

Last year I made $4,738 bucks, all of it in interest.
I wonder if that gets me into the top 50% of the world?
That would be nice.

1% is around 70 million people.
Since around 6 Billion make less than 4k a year....it's not really setting the bar all that high.

Between my wife, me, and our 4.5 kids we're not in the top 1%. We'd have to be making $221k after taxes for that and in my area that would make us pretty damn rich.

Wealth is relative. In many places you can make less but it also costs much less. We have a serious trap in the US where there is no middle ground. If you want to be comfortable you have to work very hard to jump the chasm.

I beg to differ. It's all about how you define comfortable. Some people will never be "comfortable" nor content regardless of their net income.
As for the .5, I have a child from a previous marriage that isn't "mine" legally or genetically but I still consider him my son. We get the fortune of having him on many weekends and over some vacations.

My bills require I clear 7k a month, between the two mortgages, utilities, divorce settlement, food, drink and lines of credit I have to pay every stinkin' month.
I pay more than 34k a year in Federal income taxes, not even counting what my company pays in taxes.
BTW I am not in the top 1% of US earners I think that is somewhere over $250k.

It costs a lot more to live here than most countries in the world and we also don't tax nearly the same amount as they do, either
That sounds like a good plan Jezza :P I would totally do that if I was able to

I owe 3 more monthly payments to the IRS and I'll have a HUGE bill off my back. Then I can afford to eat every day as opposed to 3 times a week like now. Been paying those blood sucking bastards for almost 8 years now.
Then I can start earning money again without them taking it all and I might be able to move into lower middle class in earnings again.
Don't ever make real money, other people just take it all anyway.

Last year I made $4,738 bucks, all of it in interest.
I wonder if that gets me into the top 50% of the world?
That would be nice.
No because *obviously* net worth doesnt mean a thing. Its *only* about what you make in W-2 wages per year, duh.
Nice interest though. Whats your principle? 2 million?

The problem is that you have to live in a third world country. And possible raise children there.

As for the .5, I have a child from a previous marriage that isn't "mine" legally or genetically but I still consider him my son. We get the fortune of having him on many weekends and over some vacations.
that is pretty awesome

people in this country spend money on things that aren't really necessary and bitch they aren't rich compare to the rest of the world. how many diner out do you have to have? how many trips do you have to take? how many new clothes each year etc... alot of these things are just wasteful life style.
if they were living like people where living back in the 50's americans would still be better off even adjusted for inflation.

If you can't live a good life at $34,000 a year after taxes, you need to take some self management courses.

Again, the article is misleading. (although I don't disagree with your statement)
34,000/year for a family of 4. Including the kids making money is what the article is talking about.
That's two $68,000 parent incomes. They make is sound lower than it really is. And it is definately not the norm in North America.
