Grandma was thinking im rich
who was making that in ’67????
Also dad
But few people made $6 and hour in 1967 either. The median household income was $7,200 or $3.60 an hour. Currently median household income is $80,160 or $40.08 an hour. No conclusion here, just information.
Using direct inflation calculations are helpful but ultimately inaccurate. A dollar in 1900 might be worth $30 today but the buying power was vastly different. We have the least buying power of any generation since the 30s.
