How to Join the 1%

They seem like they just want me to donate to their charity.

Nothing gets past that steel trap mind.

Well presumably the costs won't remain minimal throughout their childhood.

Yeah but when they get older we get to dump the daycare costs

The really big expenses won't occur until after they leave home I expect

0.4%

I think they really need to do some sort of price level normalization.  I put in $13,000 USD, which is roughly what a full-time worker at the Federal minimum wage makes after taxes and it returned 12.8%.  There are probably millions of people worldwide making less than that in absolute terms who would have a higher quality of life than this hypothetical person.

My solution was to snaffle an overachieving lawyer who now subsidises my underachieving lifestyle. We're not quite 1% yet in terms of household income, but will be after a few more pay rises for her.

I have done very well out of feminism....

You should meet my boyfriend. You guys seem to have a lot in common.

Moldy, they're fishing for donations.  They have no interest in lowering the ranking of prospective donors.

Also interesting how none of these considerations seem to come up when discussing national 1 per centers.

Here is another tool - but it makes no provision for size of family at all.

Wait do I enter household or personal income there?

Personal:

You're in the top
0.31%
richest people in the world by income.

That makes you the
18,652,583rd
richest person on earth by income.

Damn the world is poor.

If I was Moldy's hypothetical minimum wage worker.

You're in the top
11.62%
richest people in the world by income.

That makes you the
697,254,427th
richest person on earth by income.

Next single minimum wage working mother of 6 I see I will ask how it feels to be amongst the upper crust.

[Caliga]

I'm assuming household.  0.04% 

[Malthus]

I assume it is personal. Though how this works with property, I dunno.

Oh.  FUCK.

[Martinus]

I put in my personal income but said it is a 2 person household to account for my boyfriend.

[Barrister]

I put in my personal income but said it is a 2 person household to account for my boyfriend.

You guys living together Marti? 

[Valmy]

Or maybe Marty supplies him with all of his income.

No, we prefer to live separately
