IT'S A GIFT--
Some people despise
 The things money buys:
Not everyone cares
 For outsize solitaires:
Gems don't keep out the cold
 And you cannot eat gold.

 But a windfall of leisure-
 Now, THERE is a pleasure!
A break in routine
 Is a gift for a queen.
Most people could do
 With a day-dream or two,
 And who couldn't use.
 A delightful small snooze?

The average price of a new home then was $12400 about 2.48 times the yearly average wage of $5010. Which was about 2.28 times the price of a new car $2200. Today?
