> To perhaps save folks a click or three, $80K USD in 1989 is equivalent to $185K USD in 2022 according to: > https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/ Yeah, inflation adjustment doesn't really capture all the price changes. Healthcare and home ownership costs have gone up a lot more than inflation would suggest. For example In 1989 $80k would get you a pretty nice house in N. California, so this represents a lot more purchasing power than the "equivalent" $185k today, and significant disposable income would have been left over. |
