According to a UBS report (via The Economist), it seems that Chicago is at the top of purchasing power. Along with workers in Toronto and Tokyo, it only takes the average Chicago worker 12 minutes at their job to earn enough money to buy a Big Mac.

None of the 14 jobs included in the survey apparently included "blogger."
