I remember reading a Time magazine article about inflation around 1980 when I was at university. I remember it projected to the not too distant future (maybe to 2000?) and said, and I quote because it stuck in my mind; "We'll probably all make $100,000 then, but the downside will be that a candy bar will probably cost a whole dollar". I think of it whenever I buy a confectionary item, invariably for multiple dollars.
