[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you see on TV this morning how the 'brady bunch' house is for sale in California? Original owners paid 60K and now it's worth 2 million. Somehow or other don't see that happening for any other generation. But of course we're all poor because we're lazy, unlike the baby boomer SAHM's who worked really hard smoking cigarettes and drinking cocktails.[/quote] 60K was a lot for a house in the late 60s/early 70s. There was a big run up in prices starting in about 73 or so, but before that, 60K would have been on the high end for a house. [/quote] Sure, but now 2 million is on the high end for a house, and salaries have basically been stagnant since the 70s (statistically, not for you, law partner who makes more than his mechanic dad), so doesn't that sort of prove the point here?[/quote]
