[QUOTE="SlugSlinger, post: 3880945, member: 7248"] A lot of other factors go in to something like that cool building, like they don’t make lumber the same way, as in dimensional or quality, but in general, here’s an idea of the price changes. [LIST] [*]The dollar had an average inflation rate of 3.50% per year between 1933 and today, producing a cumulative price increase of 1,970.73% . This means that today's prices are 20.71 times higher than average prices since 1933, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics consumer price index. A dollar today only buys 4.83% of what it could buy back then.
