Likewise...it made me realise just how fortunate I am and that I should, perhaps, pay more attention to the other 99%.

But perspective is everything:

1% of the world's population is still 73 million people. So the UK and Ireland together.

To be "super rich" the Guardian newspaper claims you need to have assetts exceeding $3.5m and there are at least 12 million such people. I'm not one of them, and never will be.

So I know my place...it is OK.
