[quote=scaredyclassic] i never knew what my dad made. recently my mom said he never earned over a certain amount. she gave me a limit to work off of. i would have thought hed earned more than that.
it’s difficult to remember with inflation what certain amounts even mean.[/quote]
My mom once (when I was in 7th grade) implied that my dad made x dollars a year. Having snooped into his filing cabinet and seen his tax returns, I knew that the real number was about 8x. Mom was generally truthful to a fault, but for some reason she felt the need to mislead me about that.
