We have been hearing for decades that there is a huge wealth gap between people around the world, but probably no one thought that there was such a gap between the richest and the poorest. The more we talk about the inequitable distribution of wealth, the greater the gap between the wealth of the poorest and the richest seems to widen. This is confirmed by a report by Oxfam, which states that the eight richest people in the world have more money than the poorest half of the Earth's population combined. There are 3.6 billion of them! Once you figure out what number it is, you'll be giddy.
