Every now and then we get the urge to peek at what others have; just to see if we are doing ok. This is something we all do occasionally. Even if we have continued to improve over the years it is Interesting to find that we can always find somebody that has something a little bigger, or better then we do.

How about a change? Why not compare yourself and your home to what other in the world have? You may just come away feeling like you have something pretty good.

Some things are easy to compare: for instance it is pretty easy to see how we stand with our car or the homes in our neighborhood. Other things are more difficult to measure because either information isn’t available or the things we compare are “out of sight”.

In this video we show how the US homeowner compares to homeowners from other places. This is a simple comparison and only takes a minute to review. I think you will come away feeling pretty good about your home and maybe even learn something about the rest of the world.

Interestingly enough one of two things has happened. All of a sudden you may like your home or you are saying to yourself, “how can this be”? I tend to do both.

What we do not understand is how can a problem so pervasive and large exist in the modern age?

We are trying to change these conditions through various programs, products, and initiatives. IADDIC Shelters is a social enterprise focused on delivering shelter to those who do not have. Please join us in that effort by linking here and staying informed about issues of global houselessness.
