Good luck, friends!
Just in case you guys need a ratio, LiveScience.com says that the earth's population is about 6,600,000,000 (6.6 billion)
In order to input another value after you already did it once, I think you have to refresh the page. If you don't, it will still show you what fraction you are in terms of wealth, but you won't get the actual rank number. I have no idea how reliable this thing is though, so don’t get too down in the dumps if your rating isn’t that high.
Since I don't have an actual income, I just placed the family's income on the gauge. And as a result, we're apparently the 39,615,049th "richest person" in the world. That's not bad! Although, I realize that this is per person. So apparently, 39,615,048 people make more than my parents combined!
I'd love to have their job . . . ehh forget it. Let me have their money. _________________

Someone who makes only $9,800 a year, which is the current poverty line for 1 person living alone in the United States, is still richer that 86% of the world's population. Certainly puts things into perspective, doesn't it? _________________

Cool. I'm slightly richer than Ninjar. I haven't worked a year yet though, so I just put the average ammount of hours I work per week and multiplied by 52. It'll change in summer when I'm off of school, so I'll be even richer. Yay? _________________

My single salary:
You're in the TOP 0.92% richest people in the world!
You are the 55,566,409 richest person in the world!
--------------------------
Combined with my wife's salary:
You're in the TOP 0.56%
richest people in the world!
You are the 34,119,111 richest person in the world!
--------------------------
It's quite sad - especially considering what Zonder mentioned.
This test is a bit mis-leading because it doesn't factor in living costs or anything - although I make good money it doesn't go very far i the UK^^ _________________

Using what I know from what my family earns per month, multiplying it by 12 for a year's worth, and applying foreign conversion into Dollars...
You are the 718,125,147 richest person in the world!
You're in the TOP 11.96%
richest people in the world!
And my mother tells me we're poor! Poorer than the 11.95%, I guess. :P _________________
