Inflation adjusted $1M from song released in 1988

I’ve gone down a rabbit hole of listening to Bare Naked Ladies and realized multiple crazy things:
– Bare Naked Ladies are a Canadian band, so you’d have to apply the exchange rate (~.80 in 1988 and around .74 today)
– Kraft macaroni and cheese was released in 1937 for .19 cents to feed a family of 4

– My daughter listening to music from 1988 is the same as me listening to music from 1952 (think Nat King Coles Unforgettable).
– I don’t know if my daughter has listened to an entire album all the way through EVER.
– I’m really hungry for dinner
