Wheeler Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 Adjusts any given amount of money for inflation, according to the Consumer Price Index, from 1800 to 2002 http://www.westegg.com/inflation/ Example: What cost $10000 in 1800 would cost $101580.58 in 2002. Quote Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Wow this is fun. I remember that my folks bought a very nice car in 1965 for $10,000. This site says that in 2002 that car would have cost $55,817.56 I actually think that that is a little high for the calibar of car that they bought at that time. Quote Link to comment
gardnmom Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 In 1965 we bought a 1965 Oldsmobile 442 for $2800.00 I would consider it a steal at what they say I would have paid for a new one in 2002 $15628.92 Quote Link to comment
