What challenge does a wealthy nation face when trying to sustain rapid economic growth?
Multiple choice question for Comparative GDP. Select an option, then review the explanation below.

A wealthy country does not stop requiring human capital. The 'catch-up effect' typically applies to developing nations, not wealthy ones. The main difficulty for affluent countries is that as they accumulate more capital, the incremental gains in growth tend to decrease, making rapid expansion more challenging.
