Guest Posted October 16, 2002 Report Share Posted October 16, 2002 "Hopefully it will be 71 baht to the £ at xmas. To observe crudely that will bring the price of short time down to what I pay for a McDonalds Happy meal with large fries in England; or a blow job and beer at Star of Light the equivalent to a large coffee and muffin from Starbucks." That could be the funniest thing I have ever heard!!!!!! thank you I'm off for a happy meal equivalent via the theramae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spirit_of_town_hall Posted October 16, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2002 What I've noticed about Scandanavian countries is that you dont have as many rich people or as many poor people as the UK, ie high benefits and massive tax's result in people being more equal so your figures for GDP ring true.

Guest Posted October 18, 2002 Report Share Posted October 18, 2002 Are you speaking of MY wage or the relation of GDP, measured using relative PPP, to wage levels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 22, 2002 Report Share Posted October 22, 2002 "Would you get a higher wage earning than GDP than??" Let's try it this way; Are you asking me how much I earn? Or, whether it's possible for the average wage to be higher that GDP per capita? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 23, 2002 Report Share Posted October 23, 2002 "whether it's possible for the average wage to be higher that GDP per capita?"

spirit_of_town_hall Posted October 23, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2002 It would be possible for the average wage to be higher than the GDP, the GDP is the earnings of the country divided by the population. Average wage naturally total of wage divided by recipients. STH :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
