right To whine are those that have to live in Germany from the minimum wage, over a delicious life. 19.452 Euro gross in the year are not in this country too much. Could emigrate these people with the same salary, you would belong in at least 50 countries of the world to the richest people.
In so many Nations, the threshold for the income is the strongest ten percent, according to data from the World Inequality Database (WID) is less than the German minimum wage. Them, however, are admittedly not the most attractive places of residence, but the poorest countries in the world. In Mauritania, the end of the list, the rich already 788 Euro (!) in the month for a place among the top ten percent. Or in other words: 90 percent of the people earn here in a year, less than half the German minimum wage.
Almost the only African in the category,Here, we are talking of purchasing power-weighted Euro. Because the currencies of many different land and prices are completely different, has calibrated the WID to an artificial currency, the PPP-Euro. Corresponds to the value and the purchasing power of the Euro in the year 2018. For our data, we have added to this, the German Inflation from 2019, 1.5 percent is added.
most of The countries in which the German minimum wage is enough for the top ten percent, are in Africa. Outside of the black continent, only four countries fall into this category: India, Syria, Yemen, and Moldova. It's probably a few more, but there is not any country, it is current data or any at all. We have taken into account only countries that have reported at least once in 2014, your income statistics. :
The German median income, i.e. the value, of the German in a richer and a poorer half of the shares, was 2019 when 30.036 Euro gross in the year. That would be enough in at least 65 countries, the top ten percent. In addition to the above-mentioned States weights such as Brazil (21.555 Euro) and China (27.943 Euro) will be added now, and also the first Eastern European States such as Serbia (24.064 Euro) and Bulgaria (29.772 Euro).
In a further 31 countries have to be paid the Germans Better, to make it in the top ten percent. However, even less have enough money for this in Poland, Russia, Turkey, Spain, Italy, Austria and even France and the UK than in Germany.
In 15 countries, the magic limit is higher than the German 71.475 Euro. In the front of the Gulf States with their Oil and gas reserves: Kuwait leads the Ranking with a comfortable lead ahead of Saudi Arabia and Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Oman are ahead of Germany.
Norway is also a European oil giant placed on the front, with Luxembourg and Switzerland, two of the financial centres of Europe. The United States also have a significant advantage.
Germany is in this Ranking is "only" on position 16, by the way is not bad at all. Because this is also a result of the fact that the income are distributed in the country are relatively the same. Is measured with the so-called Gini-coefficient. Which varies between 0 (all have the same content) and 1 (a gets everything). For Germany, the value was last according to the OECD, at 0.29. This is in the lower third of the community.
