If you became an owner of 1KG of gold. How rich does that make you compared to the rest of the world?

Now always but often. You could even say almost always.

That's huge amounts of money in most parts of the world. Westerners don't realise just how much more their currency is worth.

That's really interesting. I saw the term "international dollar" but glossed right over it.

Sure, but mortgage interest can easily be enough to make that worth it without any other deductions. With $300K principal and a 5% loan, that’s $15K - about the same as a single taxpayer’s standard deduction and roughly half of a married couple’s standard deduction.

It was a joke obviously but German cars often start with just the absolute basics, almost forcing you to pay up for extras that should be standard, especially in higher classes.

1kg of gold would fuck up so many of the world populations people, much like the lottery
