The Year I Was Born!

Well, my investment company thought they would send me a letter saying Happy Birthday. AND...on this letter, they told me all the interesting facts about the year I was born. That's great and all...but what a way to make me feel old!!! Here are a few excerpts from the lovely birthday wish...

The new HOT toy was a "skateboard" for surfing the sidewalks. (yes in quotes as if slang we wouldn't get or something!)

A horse named Seattle Slew won the Kentucky Derby.

A few of the songs that were popular included:
"Car Wash" by Rose Royce
"Dancing Queen" by Abba
"Hotel California" by The Eagles

A few cost of living samples:
Gallon of Milk $1.44
Loaf of Bread $0.32
New Auto $4,317.00
Gallon of Gas $0.67
New Home $58,473.00
Income $7,979.00
