Considering 1960 dollars if that was the year a $1 in those years now it requires $10.00 or a 900.71% increase. The $.02 would be $.18 today. The average annual salary for a male in 1960 was $5,400 a women was $1,900 annually.
Doesnt seem much today, your mother was being frugal milk in 1960 was $.36. Hope you enjoyed your cereal because of your mother. |
