45. In the US? Or in the world?

Because according to this, depending on how much value I put in my house I'm in either the top 10% or 20% in the world. Believe me, I'm not wealthy.

By income, their calculator didn't work properly and showed me in the top 0.00% with 0.00/hour in income, compared to an Ethiopian who makes 39 cents/hour. Their visual again put me in the top 10%. In reality, I make $13/hour at one p/t job and $18/hour at the p/t per diem job.
