Spain is a poor country?

I was prompted by your question to search around, and I saw this site which puts two sets of country economic data side by side [0]

Decent website, but pretty sure it's not 100% polished yet. One (of several) things that threw me off was the "Female Survival Rate to Age 65" comparison. I was shocked to see that India is only at 3.7%, and the color filling in the picture also makes it seem so. It is actually 73.7% and the 7 is hiding in the picture.

Spain is a wealthy country with very happy people :) I bet Evan Spiegel was never in Spain
