average, I mean let’s take an example, suppose a person’s one leg is in boiling water, and
other leg is frozen in ice, then according to the law of average, that person is averagely ok, but
is he ok, I guess not. On a second example, suppose out of a hundred people 25 earn 20 a
month, 40 earn 30 a month and 25 earn 35 a month and 10 earn 100 a month, then according to
the law of averages. On an average people are earning 35.75 each. Yet is this average telling
you the real story, is it telling you that 90% are earning less than 29.11 a month? And yet most
of the wealth is concentrated in hands of 10% of the sample size?
