Interesting

Fred Sanford made $7000.00 in 1973: $4000.00 in the junk business and $3000.00 social security. That same $7000.00 today would be a bit over $32,000.00 Fred and Lamont lived in Watts, Ca. A $360,000 home in Watts today would be $64,000.00 in 1973 dollars. I know interest rates were very high - so this junk man was not doing bad for never really having any customers. I'm still wondering what they sold for $4000.00
