Oh, how did I manage to only read half a headline... I edited my response.

There's no country in the upper right corner, so we could say that any country could have low suicide rates but a high GDP per capita precludes high suicide rates.
That in itself can be a useful conclusion, even if there is no correlation.

I meant correlation is not the only thing you can get from a plot, there are other things to note.
