    Do you also have rating on Happiness Index.. Some years ago Bhutan was placed 1st on Gross National Happiness. Sometimes, the highest per capita index countries may not translate to general Happiness of Citizens.

    8 refers to Iceland but your comments are related to Ireland

      typo the information is actually for Iceland, Ireland doesn’t have a aluminium industry.
      The GDP for Ireland is more like half than stated, multinational corporations have squed the data, sure they are bringing in billions but It’s going at the same rate in tax to the European union not the country/people.

      Heaven belongs to the one that created the earth and that is Allah the Almighty. His Prophet Muhammad , peace and blessings be upon him , brought us the purpose of our earthly existence, clearly set out in the last revelation and our ultimate destination. Did we serve Him as well as our fellow human beings in the best possible manner? This question is for everyone on the earth to answer.

      The richness is counted on the basis of per capita income which is low in other countries because of huge population.

    Ireland’s lofty position in this list is bogus. it’s all down to ‘Leprachaun Economics’. Ireland is actually one of the poorer countries in the EU. It’s to do with US companies using Ireland as a tax haven to register their head offices. It’s nothing to do with Ireland having transformed itself in a few decades from being the poorest country in The British Isles to the richest. The real economy of Ireland and the standard of living still lags that of Northern Ireland which is in the UK.

      Not true and misleading. (You Sounds bitter)

      Ireland’s economy has developed radically in comparison to the UK.

      There are many multinationals in Ireland but have real jobs and products.

    Yes, ridiculous to suggest Ireland is one of richest countries in the world. A country is only rich if it looks after its people. Thousands in Ireland are homeless, more are the ‘invisible’ homeless.’ I’m a qualified teacher with a son with extra needs. I’m sleeping on a couch because I cannot afford a two bedroom apartment. More people are on trolleys because of inadequate healthcare. The list of poverty pointers could go on. Yes, some people are rich in Ireland, more are on the breadline. To say Ireland is rich is absolute bullshit. It’s a country of inequalities with a government who doesn’t give a shit about its own people. Use some different criteria for richness before I fucking puke.

    while billions of people in the world are suffering from poverty and starvation a handful countries are enjoying this luxury life style and accumulation wealth and money ..some of them have done with their hard working and talents but many have accumulated wealth and Money by exploitative means such as higher interest rates on poor countries and other means of exploitation…these countries are part of 1% VS 99% in the world .Good luck for them but nothing is permanent in this world . all this to enjoy this worldly life and what they have stored for the eschatological life is nothing

      You don’t have to blame them,take a look at our nation Nigeria to be prescribed, with God blessings Nigeria suppose to be one of the richest country in the world,but because selfishness and greedy of our past and present leadership politicaly, nigeria is one of poorest country in the world. just take a look at what’s going on with our so called politicians,especially the so called Inec officials, they the worst of all, causing so many problems here and there,if mandate is been given to the rightful owner,and the end of the the person chosen by the people doesn’t perform well, then the people will be waiting for the next term to try another person, if it happens two or three times like that,the of the people will now be there, but because of they know fully well that they can buy the Inec, even if the people are threatening them they don’t worry because they know that there’s a backup,as of now it’s very difficult to buy masses, the problem now is Inec and the judiciary that’s well the problem is hiding.the labour congress are trying but not a enough, they put more effort, thank you

    Hello world
    I’m not confident on the accuracy of this report, keep in mind this is reported assets. When you calculate military assets which I don’t think are part of this we look at countries in question like China and other communist countries who do not trade freely with others, although this does give you an overview of overall wealth by some countries who are mist likely on top, I’m not surprised Qatar made the list I was just recently in that airport, and could see how this could be in the top 10.

    How can rich countries lift the level of poorer countries to become richer also.
    Even money can’t buy everything, eg. happiness, love, self satisfaction etc.
    If can’t it’s better to have a third world war
