What is the per capita income of Ukraine?

Answer 1

Between $3,920 and $7,000

It is a developing country with incomes lower than that of Poland, Latvia, Hungary and Romania (its western neighbours) but similar to that of Russia (its big eastern neighbour). Yearly salaries are estimated at an average of between $4,000 and $7,000 per year. It's GDP (nominal) per capita is $3,920 according to the International Monetary Fund (Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(nominal)_per_capita) which is similar to that of Ecuador, Albania, Georgia and Iraq. For comparison, Luxembourg's GDP (the world's richest country) is $113,044, Qatar's is $93,000, the USA's is $47,000, Poland's is $13,799 and Burundi's (the poorest on this list) is $138

I am an American and I recently married a woman from Ukraine. She has earned a PhD in Engineering, the equivalent of a Master's in Accounting and she has many well educated friends consequently, I have very reliable sources of information and I have discussed the issue of salaries with many of these people as recently as February, 2011.

The short answer is that the average annual salary in Ukraine is approximately equal to $1,800-2,000.00 USD for a college graduate. Politicians make considerably more but this is a reflection of the corruption in the government there and not reflective of the value of the services provided by these thieves! The life for these amazing people is difficult and one cannot help but admire them in many ways. My wife is intelligent, funny and gorgeous and she doesn't have that "attitude" women in the USA seem to enjoy. I wish all women were like the one I married; it would be heaven on Earth!
