Yup, back in 1973 I made 50 cents per hour. Loading hay on a wagon and throwing it up into the loft of the barn.

According to the CPI Inflation Calculator that 50 cents is equal to $2.59 per hour today.

Using the same CPI Inflation Calculator for $1.00 per hour wages in 1967 (2012-45= 1967) you were making $12.80 in todays wages. Not too bad when a lot of people are making $7.25(minimum wage) in todays work force.

Here is a link to the calculator:
