Hawaii Minimum wage

Hellfire and bloody damnation, I remember when it was 5.25$ an hour and I thought that was a WHOLE LOTTA MONEY! That was 1992.

They will pay you in cash so no taxes are withheld. Unless you want to report to earn your Earned Income Tax credt. Your choice.

I started working in a factory after high school in 1970. Minimum wage was $1.65 per hour.

In 1970 you could still find a decent studio apartment for $53 in Portland, Oregon, IF you had the inside skinny with a relative or friend of the landlord.
