Answer 2

Hi.

I'm out here the west and growing up in the 70's I remember when starting getting afterschool jobs or summer jobs I was getting paid less than $2.00 an hour. YEP!! only less than 2 buck an hour..

Back then it seems like alot of money when you were only about 14,15 ...lol..
not so much now days... Now we should be millionaries... Living on the easy street..

Oh! Well,
Love and Peace in 2007 :-)
