Most of the world manages to get by on just $10 a day!

Finding it hard to get by on your measly salary? When the weekends come, you elect to stay inside where it's free to sit and watch that TV you already pay for—no need to venture out and spend upwards of $20 at the movie theater! Well, you aren't alone. In fact, at least 80% if the human population lives on less than a paltry $10 a day.


Most of the time, it feels like you can't take a step outside your door without spending that much due to rising gas prices, high food costs, and expensive entertainment options.



Still, people all over the world manage to do it. However, the U.S. Dollar is worth much more in many places, making low-wave survival a much easier feat.


Another "fun" fact about income: The poorest 40% of the world makes up a tiny portion of the global income—about 5%. The wealthiest 20% accounts for the vast majority of world income: Over three-quarters of all the money made in the world.


To put these statistics into an even sadder context, out of the 2.2 billion children in the world, nearly 1 billion, or every second child, lives in poverty.


Money isn't easy to come by unless you're rich!
