I am from an economics background and usually in the discipline the summary statistics of the variables are reported in a table. However, I wish to plot them. 

I could modify a box plot to allow it to display the mean,sd and min standard deviation, minimum and maximum but I don't wish to do so as box plots are traditionally used to display medians and Q1 and Q3. 

All of my variables have different scales. It would be great if somebody could suggest a meaningful way by which I could plot these summary statistics?. I can work with R or Stata

Many Thanks.
