Deutsche Bank's head of thematic research, Jim Reid, has been around for so long, he has a natural knack for finding some of the most interesting financial facts and tidbits. Which is why we look forward to his periodic publication of the "Charts that make you go WOW!" with anticipation, and this year's edition was quite remarkable. 

Below we excerpt some of the most interesting charts from the 75 page slideshow which we recommend to everyone with even a passing interest in finance (available to pro subs and of course, from your favorite Deutsche Bank sales guy or gal).
