Yes but 50 cents in 1969 was worth $2.14 in 1996. So in that stretch of 27 years, the pace of inflation was much higher than 27 year period from 1996 to 2023. So there.
They were talking about inflation back then too. Old lady's used to call me over to sweep their porches when I would do my grandma's porch back in '89 then they'd toss me a quarter. I used to be able to take a quarter and trade it for a big bag of swedish fish at the corner store. There were people back then talking about how that was enough to go to the movies in their day.
