Today I bring you a curiosity infograph rather than a useful one, doesn't mean however it's not worth looking into! So it's basically the distribution of wealth at a global scale and who in the world actually holds it and where.

For the grand majority of the common folk this is more rage inducing than anything I mean, looking at these numbers and seeing how it seems to concentrate on just a handful of companies can be outrageous. Firstly there's the most evident thing to be noticed which is that most of the money seems to be held by United States companies the big ones everyone knows and hears about adding to that the fact that from 300 billionaires about a third are from that same country just tells us that well, the US are doing great I suppose. It's interesting to note that from those 300, only 110 became billionaires by inheritance, seems like the other guys are working for their money. But then as it can be seen only 29 of them are women, which can mean 2 things either they're just picking up pace because for many years working rights for both weren't exactly the same, or that they still struggle a lot.

Worth mentioning that most of these companies are IT and technologies related meaning we really are in a technological era of growth, everyone get on the bandwagon!

In today's modern society we seem to be, no we really are in fact, surrounded by brands and companies, multinationals and their products. We consume a lot, spend a lot and so there are of course a lot of products and things to choose from to meet demand. We go our daily lives buying X brand of car and buying Y movie, eating this drinking that; And we never actually think or even care about if all these products are connected somehow. And well, they are.

It's quite fascinating to see that what we think are isolated things are actually part of such a diverse network where in the end they all end up having a relation with other companies. I've got to admit I had a few minutes of fun looking into this one and trying to find how could I get from food to electronics or some other unrelated subjects.

Even though many of them have no "direct" connection it's still worth of notice how actually what we think are concurrent companies or rivals are really just a part of a greater machine which in turn just makes me wonder if they all just don't concur in many of the prices, practices and campaigns they hold because in the end they all "feed" off each other apparently.

It's a pretty interesting graph to look upon for the simple fact that you can get astonished by the relationships that are going on in the big business world.
