imo average income will be higher... oh, you are talking about real values... not PPP... aren't you? then it is slightly optimistic imo....

messiah

yes I'm talking about nomimal values and not ppp. It's not optimistic I took the average growth rates of the last years. Right now it's 5400$, increasing the GDP by 2600$ in 6 years ins't that difficult. That would mean 400$ in a year, mothing special actually.
