Anand_n:Good to know you wrote copy ..do you work in content design now?
I work in the Investment Banking area..have been in this for the last 8 years...since arriving in this country.. I probably belong to somewhat of your time..I may not sound so on my posts..but I am all of 38 now..I consider myself lucky to be part of the transition from that past to this future..I have lot of friends who are stuck in that past..and made lot of younger friends in the new future..what a contrast.. I have seen(at home) something called (not sure if you remember)..pottu poyyi(stove made out of saw dust)..to heat water...to the ultra-modern geasers...and all this while being born and raised in Hyderabad..and not to talk about Nutan stove to Pump stove to Gas stove transition...I can go ON and ON.. |

Anand_n:BTW, your crack about wisdom in OM's thread was priceless
I will take that as a compliment.. I was a copywriter too in my brief stint in the Ad-world in Hyderabad.. It is one of my lifetime ambitions to run an ad-agency of my own and come up with some creative ads.. I am trying to get into it again here...not trying seriously though.. |

Rajusk, Interesting. But for anything to be accounted it has to pass thru some sort of system/books..black money also oes not get accounted in income numbers ,right ? One way to balance calculation can be a flat income expense based on subsistence needs...e.g what does it take for 100 people to live in a country without external transactions...esp in the farming communities or where barter systems are prevalent...not very accurate either... What is the rationale behind the current calculations?

Anand_n:
The calculations seem to be a little bit skewed though..here is the rationale.. The more commonly used PPP figures may be the best because they tend to lower the results for the richest countries and raise the results for the poorest. This is useful because economic activity in poor countries is understated due to alternatives to purchased goods and services. When a farmer eats food he grew himself it does not show up in the statistics. When someone repairs their own car or home it also does not show up in the statistics. The same goes for most bartered trade. If someone fixes his neighbor's car in exchange for some vegetables from his neighbor's garden none of this will show up in the statistics. These types of activities occur much more often in the poor countries of the world. I live in America and have never successfully repaired my own car. In much of the Third World owning and operating a car is synonymous with repairing it yourself. One often hears about how vast millions of people in Africa have to survive on some tiny amount such as $1 a day. This is not true. If a farmer in Africa only eats the food he grew himself than this shows up in the statistics as having survived on zero dollars a day. If a farmer eats food he grew himself and then goes to Starbucks once a year and gets a cup of coffee then the statistics will say that he survived on $1.40 a year. That is absurd. There is also the work done by housewives. None of this shows up in the statistics which means that countries with more wives at home have their per capita income figures lowered compared to countries with more wives in the workplace. The USA has one of the smallest proportion of housewives in the world and has one of the highest per capita income figures. |

India's per capita income is almost Rs 40,000 ($950) per year, according to the latest figures released by the World Bank. This has been calculated using the World Bank Atlas method that employs official exchange rates for conversion. India's per capita income has more than doubled from $460 in 2000-01 to $950 in 2007 due to strong economic growth. Finance Minister P Chidambaram had recently stated that India's per capita income could double every 9 years. By 2016-17, the country's per capita would be at $2,000; and by 2025, per capita would be $4,000 if India grows at 9 per cent. At $950 per capita income per year, India ranks a poor 160th in the world. According to the World Bank categories: Nations with per capita income (PCI) less than $935 are 'low income;' nations with PCI from $936 to $3,705 are 'lower middle income;' those with PCI from $3,706 to $11,455 are 'upper middle income;' and those with PCI from $11,456 or more are 'high income.' |
