How Poor Am I? is free, open-source, and ad-free. Maintaining the data pipeline, adding new countries, and keeping translations fresh takes real time. If the site has helped you understand inequality better, a small contribution keeps the site running and free for everyone.
If the site sparked your curiosity, the books that informed it are the deeper read. Piketty, Saez & Zucman, Wilkinson, Milanović, and others. We've curated the canonical titles into a list at Bookshop.org, which sends a portion of every sale to independent bookstores.
