What does this calculation mean? 🤔
Let's use the example of $35 and the years 1979 and 2025. Due to inflation and changes in the cost of living, the amount of goods or services that $35 could buy in 1979 would require $153.15 in 2025 to purchase the same quantity of items. 😮
If we reverse the years in that calculation (2025 and 1979), what $35 could buy in 2025 would have been roughly equivalent to what $8 could buy in 1979. So even though you have $35, it's like having only $8 in terms of what you can actually buy with it. 💸
