How Prices Have Changed

It just blows my mind how prices have changed
The first house I bought cost $12,000, that's insane
Cars cost a heap
Dog food ain't cheap
Getting too excited is not good for my brain

Carol Eastman Date: 6/17/2015 3:31:00 PM College cost me $350 per semester ($2800 plus books) back when... Look at that now. To graduate will cost my son $100,000 in loans! Live in the present... and for the future... and chase those dumb congressmen who keep costing us and running up bills for the country. Here Dragon! I've got something for you to do...
