Always a bit skeptical with Luxembourg as half of the workforce crosses the border every day, and Bermuda numbers probably don't reflect the average standard of living, but otherwise quite nice to see so many European countries at the top.
What other countries would you expect near the top? Most parts of Africa and Asia are poor, so are the Americas south of the USA. That basically leaves Europe, USA, Canada, Australia, some gulf-petro-countries and some tax haven island nations.
I expected the 2 missing countries of the G8 (Japan, Russia), as well as South Korea to be in that top 26. I was also thinking that Canada would be higher.
Taiwan is also missing, but apparently it's because official statistics aren't available for political reasons.
