It took Gina Rinehart just minutes to make my annual salary.
In fact, 60-year-old mining heiress Rinehart earned $67,000 during the time most of us spent sitting on the toilet today, according to clever website How Rich Are You.
The number-crunching website instantly compares your yearly earnings to Gina’s, then breaks down that eye-watering amount of money to demonstrate what else it could buy.
For example:
Yep, Gina’s income over three years could almost buy a country.
The mind boggles.
(Well, mine certainly did when the website revealed that Rinehart made $42,000 in the time it took me to write this post.)
So, give the calculation a whirl here.
Just brace yourself: the results will either leave you nauseated or re-evaluating your choice of industry…
What were your results? What would you like to see Gina Rinehart do with all that money?

Good luck to her with all that camel, eye of the needle and Heaven thingy. But what concerns me most is that despite the truly mind-blowing profits she's making, she 1. wants to reduce the minimum wage of her slaves, sorry, workers - I think I heard $2 an hour bandied about by her in an interview 2. Is taking and profiting from natural resources that are ours - and those of our First People 3. Is not paying an appropriate amount of tax on that ridiculous amount of money and 4. Should not be receiving part of the $13billion in government subsidies when our most vulnerable people, like old age pensioners, homeless and young unemployed people are being told to suffer at her expense, and the middle class expected to foot her bill.
All that money and she always looks awful .....
