Indeed. It’s interesting both from the specific case and also what it tells us about our society’s emphasis on dollar wealth. For instance, $200 a month barely gets you a meal a day in Southern California, but it still qualifies for a spot in the top 15% of earners worldwide. Makes me wonder if there’s a better gauge of true wealth than USD per year.
