如果你30岁以上——就像我们中的一些人,那么你有听到自己在说,“近4美元一加仑汽油?我记得是1.25美元!”I call these grandpa (or grandma) moments. In our exasperation, we fail to account for the long-term effects of inflation. And in our refusal to acknowledge that we are indeed getting old, we forget that two decades have passed since gas prices were that low, or that $1.25 didn't feel particularly cheap back in 1993. What I'd like to know is the exact age at which we psychologically imprint prices. We use this internal reference point to compare prices for the rest of our lives. Maybe it's the year that you first start paying for things yourself, like gas. Or the first time you get a paycheck and realize the true value of money. Soon enough, we all have our first grandpa moment.
