Per www.usinflationcalculator.com, that would be ~$385k in today's dollars.

  $200k for a happier life, and more realistically $385k, make a lot more sense to me than the $70k that I saw floating around a few years ago. The more you make, the better you can handle the 3 versions of yourself. The debt from the past, Food, clothes, shelter, and fun in the present, and savings for the future. When I rented a cheap single bedroom and made 70k in the midwest I was living a "better life" than I do now making much more, saving much less due to a kid, house, safer (but modest) car, more insurance(s), etc. Sneak attack lifestyle inflation!
