To put it by comparison: Monaco (the country) is a smaller than Central Park in NYC but their GDP per capita is around $256,000 while the USA it hovers at around $92,000. Like why does a European microstate that small have a higher GDP than a major super power? They don’t have income tax to be worried about (unless you are a French citizen).

Is it because everyone there is basically a millionaire or working in the tourism industry where their main clientele are basically elites who have left over cash? The country’s population is 38,500 (about half of San Clemente, CA) but even with a small population, do people in Monaco have a higher disposable income when you take it into account?
