Today's article is about the outrageously high wages in the UK. Now I know this is not the first article in this vein and I suspect it may not be the last but nevertheless I thought I would give my take on the issue and perhaps try and delve a little deeper.

The Issue

It would appear that wages in the UK are in large parts, greater than that of other companies. This makes running a profitable business much harder.



What I have done to try and demonstrate this difference is to compare the wages for certain economy levels in different economies by converting everything into GBP


The Evidence


(This information is correct as of 20:30 30/05/12 and all results are an average of the top 5 paying jobs and is converted using the best exchange rate to turn the money into GBP
)

United Kingdom - 7.80 GBP


Poland - 7.98 PLN
---- 4.02 GBP
(-3.78)
Lithuania - 7.83 LTL
---- 7.83 GBP
(+0.03)
Brazil - 3.93 BRL
---- 2.50 GBP
(-5.30)
Portugal - 5.02 PTE
---- 2.53 GBP
(-5.27)
Serbia - 8.08 RSD
---- 4.13 GBP
(-3.67)
Hungary - 7.53 HUF
---- 2.52 GBP
(-5.28)
Greece - 7.01 GRD
---- 3.53 GBP
(-4.27)
Sweden - 7.46 SEK
---- 3.76 GBP
(-4.04)
Romania - 3.31 RON
---- 1.78 GBP
(-6.02)
USA - 19.45 USD
---- 11.67 GBP
(+3.87)
Bulgaria - 1.66 BGN
---- 1.66 GBP
(-6.14)
Italy - 2.55 ITL
---- 7.61 GBP
(-0.19)
Belgium - 6.00 BEF
---- 11.38 GBP
(+3.58)

I could not gather applicable information for the following countries due to either no currency exchanges between GBP
and the relative currency or not enough job offers.

Indonesia | Netherlands
Turkey | Canada
Russia | Taiwan
Germany | Mexico
Slovenia | India
France | Pakistan
Croatia | Ireland
Spain | Bosnia and Herzegovina
Israel | Switzerland
China | South Korea
Ukraine | Australia
Republic of Macedonia | Malaysia
Iran | Norway
Latvia | Chile
Finland | Peru
Argentina | Colombia


So looking at this it is possible to see that, for Q1 jobs at least wages in the UK are amongst the highest around. The only greater wages are found in Belgium, Lithuania and the USA. The remaining countries often are a few GBP
cheaper.

Why is this the case? Should something be done about it? What do you think?


Another recent article on this matter was published by money8 on 30/05/12 and i'm providing the link so that any previous discussions/progress in this matter can be read up on by my (hopefully ) loyal readers.

>>>>>> British Companies Are Being Destroyed!! <<<<<<


NB - I have focused on Q1 companies because it will prevent the article from being far too long which in turn will hopefully mean the point of this article will not be lost.

- These statistics are not by any means perfect and as you can see a lot of data is non existent using this method. Whilst also it depends a large amount on exchange rates which I have noticed depend far more on which way the trade is going than the strength of a currency. As a result, when I have more time, I shall be revisiting this and take a look at what can be bought for the respective wages within each country. Hopefully this will not only give us more information but it will also provide us with more accurate information.

About the game:


USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!

In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.

Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.

Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.


In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.

"E-Sim is one of the most unique browser games out there"

Become an influential politician.

The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.


You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.

The international war.

The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).


At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.

E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
