I want my paper money to hold its value

Well then, your SOL. Your paper dollar is worth 4.3¢ compared to 1964.

My first job at age 16 in 1964, I made 1.25 per hour. adjusted for inflation to now that’s over 25 dollars per hour or 200 per 8 hour day. 1000 dollars per week, 4400 per month.

Tends to prove that minimum wage laws hold compensation well below what it should be.

I made more at age 16 than I ever made again in my life and that truly truly SUCKS!
