Me:
1) $1.75/hr
2) $18,000/yr

1963 (at 8 years old) my husband got 1/2 cent per worm he dug up for a family owned business that sold worms to fisherman. He got a penny for night crawlers.

When he went in the army (at 18) that was his first full time job. He doesn't remember the pay, but it wasn't very much.
