    The Super Rich & Us.

    Jaques Peretti.

    To sum up: Only little people pay taxes.

    It's giving me an uncontrollable urge to reach for my Barrett.

        Bl**dy IT

        I saw an advert for a tax inspector before doing my degree. I mentioned it to some family and friends' and their response was "Don't be so bl**dy stupid."

          So don't run away with the idea that any of us are anything even close to this sort of wealth.
          Not true, that was a trailer on the PM programme. The chap from the R4 statistics programme 'More or Less' came onto PM to tell Eddie Mair off. I think that statistic should have been the 85 richest own as much as the poorest half of the world.

          Still a shocking statistic though.

              If you want to see where you fit on that worldwide scale, put your annual take-home money (inc expenses!) into here:
