Weird Statistics!!!!

A big part of doing MBA is going through a lot of information and on one of my recent reading spree I came across a few statistics that I found really weird and intresting. So here they are:

1. Almost half the world's population earns a below - average income!
Well I always used to feel that half of the population of this world would be earning above-average income. Reading this made me wonder am I one of those people who earn a below avergae income? Well it was then it hit me! I don't earn anymore. I am a student. A full time student with no income :-0

Well can this fact be realted to the fact that more than half the world has a below average IQ? Assumig that people doing MBA have an above average IQ . Then I would be having an above avergae IQ but I am not earning at all which means I am below the average as far as income is concerned. Which in turn indicates that someone out there has a below average IQ but is earning above average income. This make me wonder should we have a high IQ or a low IQ? Are we on such an IQ shortage? Well I guess statistics never lie!

2. If current trend continues, by 2017 every child born will be illietrate!
Well sad but true. Then I figured that maybe this is the reason that more than half of the people in this world have an income below the average income. Could this be it? Establishing the link between IQ, income and education I am more than determined to do my bit to eradicate illetracy from the children who are our future because I guess statistics never lie!

3. Atleast 97.3% people in this world are at the risk of getting cancer!
I was particularly worried about this statistics as I did not know wheteher I lie in the 97.3% category. It was scary enough that 97.3% of people are at risk of getting cancer, but it was even scarier to discover that most people fall into that 97.3% demographic. Man now everwhere everything seems scary as thought it is out there to get me! I am worried like hell because statistics never lie!

4. By 2050, at current mortality rates, two out of every three people will be dead!
Well this statistic as all the ones mentioned above really worries me! I am too young to die by 2050! I am spending so much on my education already. In addition I am planning to specialise in Financial Engineering after I finish this MBA. I am wondering will I be able to pay off all my debt by 2050? Will I live a debt - burdened life? If I am not able to repay will my wife be able to repay it? Or looking at things as they are with a short life and a huge debt will anyone marry me? As I am writing this I am also worried what if my girlfriend reads this blog and finds out I might die by 2050! Will she leave me then?

Ironically I am sitting with two other people in the library as I type this wondering which 1 of us is going to be the lucky one to survive past 2050. Then I figured what if I kill both of them then I will surely survive beyond 2050. I guess I have no chocie because statistics never lie!
