Heard a colleague say "we weren't rich, just middle class" about their childhood and we need to remind more people that if you are middle class in a western country, you ARE rich. You think you're not because you're comparing yourself to the 10% of people who are richer than you, but you should be looking at how you're doing compared to the 90% of people on this planet who have less than you.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Als Antwort auf juliette • • •Not comparably in Denmark, no, but they are rich in absolute terms compared to most people in the world.
They have access to food and shelter, clean water, etc.
They fit the bill for being richer than 90% of the people on this planet.
