if you want to talk about currency then you should no longer exclud General Income per capita, National Income, and the other minor factor that needs to be consider.

yes, it's not really about the currency exchange rate, but more on what can you buy with that amount of money, or rather how long can you survive with that money. Just for easy example USD1 = +/- Rp 9100, with USD1 in indonesia you can buy lunch with drink probably, but in US, can you buy lunch with 1 dollar?

yes, 51k USD buy alot in INA.
If LD get those incentives, i'm sure LD would be motivated to win too.

LD can't. if one AG gold is worth USD 50k, China has won 100+ golds, and the government gotta pay out USD 5M!

USD 50K is for an Olympic Gold in China.
an Olympic Gold in Singapore is SGD 1M!

talking about Olympic Golds, it is estimated that China spent RMB 700M (USD 90M) on each Olympic Gold.
