At one point my main computer was a Thinkpad, I got so good at using this that I played total annihilation and mech warrior 5 solely with the nub.
Homie you are missing the point, no one is saying people didn’t have problems, what they are saying is in Relative AND absolute terms to now, things are both more expensive and people earn less.
We can look at statistics to prove this. Anecdotal evidence exists, but it doesn’t prove anything.
Relatively, it fucking was a breeze in terms of cost of living. Of course there were social, technological and other issues, no one disputes that.
You need to do some math here because I think you’re trying to put out a “gotcha” moment but the math stills sucks. Last I checked minimum wage is what, $7.50 or something in the US? So even at. $3.10 an hour minimum wage, that $25,000 house would have been a fucking steal, even at 13% interest rate, hell make it 20% if you want. Cars were cheaper then too.
Screw that, I’ll listen to Nofx until I die.
