Global Pay Scale: Where Are You?

An article on the BBC's News Magazine is giving you the chance to see where you are on the global pay scale, and whether you are above or below the worldwide average.

Taking its data from 72 countries, not including some of the poorest nations, it gives you the ability to see where you monthy wage (pre tax) sits as compared to the world average wage of $1,480.

Though those behind the scheme admit to having to rely on some sketchy results and the lack of some large countries like Nigeria, the chart does give an unvoidable picture of the disaparity between countries. Over half of the countries fall below the world average, many by a large amount.
