🥇 Visualizing How Much Gold There is For Every Person in the World (Not a Lot)

What We’re Showing
This chart examines a hypothetical question of how much gold there is in the entire world for every person.
👑 Gold Really is the Symbol of Kings
Turns out, there really isn’t a lot of gold in the world.
To date, only 244,000 metric tons of gold have ever been discovered.
That works out to about 30 grams, or six gold rings, for every single human being.
If you have more than that, you have more than your fair share!
