From some guy in Florida:
“If you look back to the Great Depression, the house was only three times the average salary. Now, it is eight times the average salary. The car was 46% of the salary [back then], the car today is 85% of the salary. And here’s the craziest part: [residential] rent then was 16% of the average salary, it is now 42% of the average salary.”
I’d love to see the same stats for groceries and electricity. On the other hand, maybe not.
