If the difference is a factor of 187 wouldn't you need 187 years in South Dudan to equal a year's income in the US? 187 / 12 is just over 15, but now you're comparing years to months
Doh!! Bad math! Thanks, edited.
Think I meant 15 years in South Sudan = one month in USA
it would not change the result this time, but these numbers lie a lot if you don't factor in cost of living.
No, America bad. Lemmy doot left side. Calcium
I clapped and good bones
There's a bunch of African countries I would rather live than the US, although maybe not exactly South Africa or Congo...
Such as?
Namibia, Kenya, Mauritius, Ghana, Botswana, The Gambia, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Uganda, Malawi, Equatorial Guinea.
At the end of the day, while living in the US does have its share of issues, they absolutely do not compare to living in Africa.

Different by a factor of 187.

To equal a month's income, you mean?
Believe that’s yearly.

Well go right ahead then. I'm going to stay in my comfortable home here in the USA though.
