How Many Lives?

About How Many Lives? Android App

We all know this situation: We read about how much the government is spending on this and that. Millions here, billions there - but what do these numbers actually mean for every single one of us? Did you ever ask yourself how many years average Joe would have to work for that new government project? How many kids could be raised instead of paying for that new public construction project? How many lifetime earnings have to be confiscated to cover that new social programme? This app answers these questions (and more!) for you! Just enter the amount and select your country. Afterwards you will be given simple textual results you can easily share with your friends.
This app calculates its results based on the OECD's average income and taxation rates. In addition, it features an extended mode that lets you personalize all values to better fit your own situation. It's completely free and contains no ads!
