Malcolm Gladwell Quote
Graham states, Because average country income levels do not matter to happiness, but relative distances from the average do, the poor Honduran is happier because their distance from mean income is smaller. And in Honduras, the poor are much closer in wealth to the middle class than the poor are in Chile, so they feel better off.
