***What they have not told you is that one NEW dollar will be equal to TEN old ones.***

That is because a dollar today is worth less than ten cents.

Remember the 10 cent coke? no tax.
Today it is about $1.35 before being taxed.

The three cent postage stamp today is forty four cents.

The 25 cent movie is today over six or seven dollars, and more in some areas. And they don’t even have a double feature on weekends!

...and in those days a ten million dollar computer had less computation power than a 99c cell phone today.
