Comments

In 1967 prices were lower. Inflation over the past 52 years has taken its toll on the US dollar. The cost of living is 10 times higher than is was in 1967 when prices were as follows:

Single Family House $20,000

New Car $2,500, Used Car $750.

Gasoline 20 cents/gal.

Monthly House Payment $150

Monthly Utility Bills $60

Monthly Groceries $200

Monthly Other Expenses $100

Total $510 vs Average Monthly Income $595.
