#4Such beautiful words. Love the last line: "To not to have entirely wasted one's life seems to be a worthy accomplishment, if only for myself."

#5I feel like too many people get sucked into the idea of furthering their career, to the point that they forget to further their own life.
What is the point of existence if we never get around to experiencing it?

You are taking the value of a tangible asset from 1969 and comparing it to todays value of said tangible asset. This in no way illustrates the inflation rate. All it shows (assuming your numbers are right) is the increase in the perceived value of gold in that time frame. The original comment's $650 number is close enough to be considered accurate
