What the article doesn’t discuss the cost of living between the United States and places such Rwanda or Republic of Congo. It would be wiser to evaluate different countries on their purchasing power parity. Purchasing power parity measures what you can buy with an allotment of money. For instance the purchase of food in the Unites States is much higher than countries in Western Europe and Russia. There is a major fallacy in this article.

A lot of people are hurt, broken, and desperate right now. If we're not there to lend a helping hand, guess who will be? Satan and his thug friends. Great post, as usual!

Just b/c someone with 50k is top 1% in the world does not necessarily mean they are living more lavishly. It all depends on location. well – living in nyc is a lot different than living in the slums of India. 50k in nyc will get you nothing, while 10k in certain parts of India will allow you to live like a king.

Jon and Kate Gosselin are perfect examples of what fame and fortune will do to you if you let it control your life. Good stuff, and great verse.

This is so good for us to think about especially in America where sometimes we feel the American Dream is a right. I am doing a few posts on 1 Timothy 6 and taught through it at church a few months ago! Great passage of scripture in relation to our riches. Redeeming Riches Awesome stuff!

I am so blessed and so rich in comparison to most of the world. Our country's current recession is such an object lesson in not putting our trust in the riches of this world. If only the recession would turn our people back to God, how wonderful it would be. The sooner we learn that God is our Provider, and not Uncle Sam the better off we will be. Great post!
