In today's episode, I talk about GDP and GDP per capita in Spain and the USA, and I try to answer the question: Is Spain a poor country? Turns out, it's a bit complicated. We've also got some thoughts on Ireland, on India, on wealth and well-being, and much more. Donate to the podcast here: https://expatmadrid.com/donate/

Shoutout and a big thanks this week to our two donors, Keely in Scottsdale, Arizona, and multi-donor Jim AKA Seamus, who I think is in Boston.
