According to The Economist, we should all move to Denmark! Well, that is if we like peace and business potential.

I'm also intrigued by the Marginal Revolution post about how much money to carry and their related tennis ball problem. There's got to be a high school statistics/economics project in there somewhere!

I think the top 10 or so are generally the same... the rankings, at least, are that close!

As for the MR post, well, they're always coming up with crazy stuff. It's odd, though, because the other day I was thinking about how little cash I usually carry in my wallet.
