<p><a href="http://www.differencebetween.net/business/difference-between-gdp-and-gdp-per-capita/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this site</a> summarizes the difference between GDP and GDP per capita as:</p>

<pre><code>1. GDP is a measure of a nation a­s economic health while GDP per capita takes into account
the reflection of such economic health into an individual citizen a­s perspective.
2. GDP measures the nation a­s wealth while GDP per capita roughly determines the standard
of living in a particular country.
3. GDP normally increase as the population increase while GDP per capita may decrease when
population increases.
</code></pre>

<p>Since real gdp is just gdp adjusted for inflation, would the same definition summarized for GDP vs GDP per capita hold true for Real GDP vs Real GDP per capita?</p>
