What is the missing “X” percent?

PLEASE HELP ME!

I have a current statistic on global income, but I need one on global wealth. What I mean by “wealth” can include income but also includes assets like real estate and who owns big businesses. It’s not just based on one’s income.

Please cite your source, and have the information as current as you can possibly find it.

I took a self assessment test on www.stresscenter.com and it helped me understand myself a lot better, but I need help with changing how I am. Heres what it said: "On the overall affectedness scale you are probably anxious and depressed much of the time. More than likely it is hard for you to enjoy life on any consistant level. You are always second-guessing yourself and the world around you. You are over thinking and obsessing and you hardly ever experience peace of mind. You're often fearful, worrisome and unhappy. You dont like being this way but you dont know what to do to change. Things are too much work and no one understands the way you feel.You go from worry to depression, to worry again, wearing yourself out with your thoughts and what if thinking. You probably hate yourself much of the time for being so miserable to be around and yet you cant seem to find comfort when youre alone. Nothing makes you feel safe or happy, and life is just one big struggle."

I have always wondered, isn't it selfish to bring children into such a horrible world (overall with all the war, rape, killings ect) ? If you see that this life has so many negatives, why would you have children, when if you thought about it they would be subject to all of it??

I found this chick I usted to know on myspace.
Now, I knew her in high school and unconciously, I always felt that I wasn't good looking enough around her.
we got to know each other then and she actually was attracted to me and I was totally out of shape.
I was never really attracted to her enough to make the right move and later lost touch and ended up falling out of love with her.
well, shes back now and my social and love life isn't as busy as hers,and I am wondering if she thinks less of me because of that.
when we talk, she usually has tons of things to do and I don't.

should I stop talking to her for a while and see if she ims me or comments on my myspace?
when we talked earlier on ims, i was the first one to say hi but she asked how things were..
I am thinking of just seeing what happens.
shes never really too talkative online..
she said in her blog posts she has really bad relationship problems, so maybe thats why.

Amelia Bloomer was an early feminist who championed women's rights. Why do you think women today believe in women's rights but do not call themselves feminists? Is it the feminist agenda that has changed or does the term have different meanings today?

This is for my Multicultural psychology class. I need to show how 3 factors: 1. The belief in in-group superiority of White workers; 2. exploitative practices of businesses; and 3. the creation of between group competition for a perceived scarce resource (jobs and land) led to the extreme prejudice against Chinese and Japanese workers who immigrated to this country.

I know the big thing is about confidence these days and everyone has to be really confident but I've just never wanted to be that way. I mean i don't want to hate myself but I don't want to be too confident or extroverted. I feel like people like me better the way I am, quiet and introverted and un opinionated and that makes me feel good about myself. I also feel like if I'm too confident I say stupid things without thinking, where as if I am se;f-conscious I avoid it. Does anyone else feel this way?
