Highly doubt that. When I was little (long time ago) I got to spend a month one summer with my Rich Aunt on Long Island. My Mom sadly had major surgery and the three younger kids went to stay with my Aunt and Uncle.

This was Glory Days of Defense spending on Long Island. Sperry, Gruman, Fairchild Republic. Was around 1968. My Uncle was making a ton, his wife drove a new Cadilac Convertible. My days in that Month was going to Robert Moses, Jones Beach, we go to new drivethroughs that opened up. I recall we went to Drive Through Dry cleaners to pick up Uncles Shirts. We saw a Drive in Movie. My Uncle worked till 430 pm and got home at 5 pm and we have BBQs in back yard, he play Golf at club. None of women worked, None of kids went to camp or summer camp, the whole town was alive every day. And dad all be home early. And be no big deal to play Golf on a Wed.

My uncle paid cash his brand new home in 1963 and cost less than a years pay. I recall him with Wall Street Journal opened. Talking to his EF Hutton Broker buying Nifty 50 socks. You know GM, GE, IBM, Xerox, Coca Cola, Disney, Walmart, Procter & Gamble that seemed to never go down and always pay big dividends. I recall my Aunt crashed her Caddie once while husband at work, she just called Dealer, said bring me new Caddie put it on my husbands account.
