You know how everyone rolls their eyes when someone starts in "in my day that cost ten cents!"?
Yeah. So I normally don't do that. But....... I saw an article that said $2000 was the cheap seat price to see Taylor Swift.
I'm sure she puts on a hell of a show.
$2,000.00!!! FOR THE CHEAP SEATS!!!
I know everything costs more now. I have bills. No use whining about it.
But ... but ... but ...
(okay...here it comes)
I paid $5.50 to see The Beatles.
I went to a private boarding school for the arts my senior year of high school. The yearly tuition, which was considered sky high at the time, was $3500, about the cost of a new car.
Recently I was poking around the school's website and came upon the current yearly tuition numbers (which don't include required extras)....
$72,500
That would make the tuition for four years of high school over a quarter of a million dollars.
I think we've priced ourselves out of living....
