That's the year I was married, also. The only difference is, you still are and I'm not. But I went on to meet a better match for me, so it all worked out. :)

I'm glad it all worked out for you.:dance2:

I would have guessed income would have been about 70% of your figure.

My dad once said to me "When you were doing marketing research for ARCO, you once predicted gas would hit $.75 per gallon. I told you that you were crazy, it would never happen. Now, by God, you were right."

Gas is cheaper now.

1972 gasoline at 37¢/gallon inflation adjusted: $2.22

$1.84/gallon in Richmond today at BP (regular). 93 octane is always 60¢ more at $2.44
