Anyone else use an inflation calculator to understand how much money the characters are talking about in today's currency?


For example, in the movie Goodfellas, Jimmy gives everyone $100 when he walks into a bar which translates into $660 in today's dollars from 1970 (when the movie was set and not when it was made) back in the day. That's much more than I originally thought. There are many such calculators and I often have one open when I'm watching a movie. https://ift.tt/2wah1h0 or this one https://ift.tt/2hRr2GU I highly recommend it to anyone who watches period pieces or movies older than like 2005. In fact, if you do it enough, you can probably just have an ear for it! via /r/movies https://ift.tt/38IDWTr
