It's GDP PPP per capita then.

Ah. I checked the comment and the graph again, yeah indeed I have plotted GDP PPP per capita, not GDP per capita.
Yeah, sorry for the confusion. This is totally my fault. The y axis should be GDP PPP per capita. And thanks for pointing out the inconsistency.

I suggest you to try also GNI PPP per capita as an indicator, it might be a better indicator, If I knew how to do these kind of graphs I would it myself, but I don't know.

I will do this, assuming I will be able to access this data for all the countries somewhere. If you'd like to play with this stuff let me know, I would be happy to opensource the code and data on GitHub or somewhere

The problem is that I am not a coder otherwise I would accept. If you want GNI PPP per capita data you can find it on the world bank website. I suggest you to use GNI PPP per capita (constant 2017 International $) with 2019 data since the new data are not widely available yet.

No probs. Thanks for sharing the link. I will do it this weekend. (Have been out of town due to work so don't have access to the personal laptop)
