My 2 cents
My dad remembers when hot dogs during the depression were a nickel and you could get a whole 3 course Chinese meal for a quarter.
I once took a very rare antique watch off my wrist and put it in front of a very indecisive type of guy I was trying to convince to protect his family with life insurance.
I said; Give me a hundred for the watch
I sat for exactly 60 seconds completely silent.
He starred and starred but could not act.
After 60 seconds, I said; Too Late...Your indecisiveness caused you to pass up a $2500 watch for $100
The moral... Some people don't know a good deal when they see it and for others what seems cheap money now was actually too expensive then.
