Ok sure but there was a report on development of income from 2012 to 2022 or something like that it was posted maybe 2-5 months ago. Some countries have had 300-400% increase, the average somewhat less.
Norway was the only country that had had negative development of income (or purchasing power, I forget).
Anyone remember that graph?
I took away from it that while we used to have bigger salaries, that’s no longer the case.
I like that they include the hours worked.
Is anyone still buying this bs? Prices are like in West Coast, salaries like in Germany
Take that, Switzerland!
Sounds like bs, I bet it’s much lower when everything is accounted for.
I am Belgian, I don’t believe for a second we are number 4
And yet we can’t afford to maintain our schools or take care of our elderly.
There should be a way to adjust these statistics for wealth distribution or income inequality.
Australia could be above Qatar if we actually charged foreign companies for our natural gas
Unbelievable when you know that 33000 pensioners are living below EUs poverty line. And people have to sell their jewelry to pay bills. 300 000 postpone dental appointments because of the cost. But hey – at least were giving 1% of our GNP to dictators around the world in so called aid. I’m not even mentioning the cash flow to Ukraine
“GDP per capita adjusted for costs and hours works” seems like a meaningless parameter. I don’t think this has any value except for the novelty of Norway being at the top.
Doesn’t mean much when purchasing power is so low.

Norwegians themselves are [not so wealthy](https://www.visualcapitalist.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Highest-Median_Mean-Wealth-2023_06.png), though.

Norway is 49th when it comes to GDP (PPP), https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(PPP)
What’s the use when you have money but you can’t buy anything or it’s all too expensive compared to other countries.
Don’t believe this stat
Viking power
