Check out this interesting visual of total wealth by country. Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words.
What sticks out to me is:

1) U.S controls almost 30% of world’s wealth.

2) Taken together the countries of Asia control 39% of world’s total wealth.

3) Poverty of underdeveloped countries is obvious. Africa and Latin America only control 1.14% and 2.75%, respectively.
