		<description>Interesting Question!

Quick back of the envelop calculations: 

Numbers from:
http://www.blacklistednews.com/view.asp?ID=5849

World's GDPs for all nations is approximately $50 trillion

Total value of the world's real estate is estimated at about $75 trillion
Total value of world's stock and bond markets is more than $100 trillion
BIS 2007 valuation of the world's derivatives is now $516 trillion 

My math: 50 trillion world GDP / 6.5 billion people = 7,700.00 income per person per year

               691 trillion world wealth / 6.5 billion people = 106,000.00 wealth per person

I don't think we would feel wealthy at that level. But if you divide it by a workforce of 3 billion (from CIA world factbook) it would more than double those figures. Still, not a feeling of wealth, but if there was even a little more equitable distribution of wealth and income I think the world would grow well beyond these figures. The problem is, could we afford this level of wealth environmentally. By the time we reached these levels we could hope for cleaner technology and the rate of population growth would level off as incomes rose.

I couldn't find any good estimate of world black market value. Someone let me know if you do.

		<description>how a bout calculate every country's worth in money and assets,      all 200 or so ,  then take into effect illegal monies to project a WORLD WORTH!!!!!!   then take the population total in numbers,    divide it equally for all humans.   every man and woman would be rich!!!!!!!!!  i make it sound easy because i have the idea, but you have the means to put it to the media's attention.</description>
