What My Life Would Have Cost in 1950 - History Facts

In 1950, the purchasing power of the U.S. dollar was more than 13 times greater than it is today, -  Bennett Kleinman

...meaning your money went much further, at least when it came to certain expenses. 

• For instance, the average cost of a brand-new Chevrolet sedan was just $1,450 that year, the equivalent of around $19,416 today when adjusted for inflation. 
• The median price for a single-family home, meanwhile, was only $7,354, or around $98,474 in today’s money. 
• That said, salaries were lower in the mid-20th century as well. The median salary was $3,135 (around $41,979 in today’s dollars)...

Which got me wondering: 

What would my own lifestyle have cost if I lived in 1950?...
