Did you know?

I just finished reading Thomas L. Friedman’s The World is Flat.

Did you know:

In 1985, the operational worldwide economy included 1.5 billion people.

In 2000, that number moved to 4 billion people.

Think about that for a second. 15 years, 2.5 billion new participants in the worldwide economy. It may seem cliche to talk about right now. But, the world is changing. And, FAST.

    How did Friedman arrive at those numbers, just out of curiosity?
