That is in pure $$. According to wikipedia, the PPP according is $24,485. There is 80-90% house ownership. Income tax is 10%. It's hard to make a reasonable comparison like that.

Another example is Czech Republic, which has the lowest poverty rate in EU - under 10% before Finland and Netherlands. And yet it's way after them in the wealth list.
