said by TheRul:And that was a time when an honest days work was worth a dollar., right?
Minimum wage from 1968 -1973 was $1.60/hr. Figure $2/hr if you work at Disnyland. So with a little overtime, $5,000/yr. ($420/Mo)
1970 - Upland California
New Ranch Home; 2 bedroom
1 1/2 acre lots suitable horses
$27,000
10% down. = $177/Mo.
So after food/gas/utilities... On
could own a home AND take the kids out on Friday night!
