1) Main caution would be purchasing power of money varies in different proportion for different goods. I.E. over the past 80 years the GDP per capita of the United States if measured by purchasing power of potatoes, did not grow significantly. But if it is measured by the purchasing power of eggs, it grew several times.

2) GDP ignores volunteer work (linux, wikipedia etc..), does not take into account black market or bartering, child rearing and housekeeping have no value, for cross-border comparisons one should especially regard whether it is calculated by purchasing power parity (PPP) method or current exchange rate method, Oilproducing countries may sustain high GDPs without industrializing, this high level won’t be sustainable when the oil runs out.
