Beer .5 ducat a pint.
College starting at 640 ducats a year up to 2560 ducats a year.
So formal education started at 1280 times and went up to 6400 times the price of a pint. Which at $6/pint today would be ~$7500 to $36k a year.
- maxerickson 7y agoThe craft brewery here sells one of their cheaper beers for $3 a pint. (they mostly have $4 and $4.50 price points, with some smaller batches costing more)
- caublestone 7y agoHow much is community college where you are? How much is state?
- maxerickson 7y agoThe localest community college is $5,000 in-county, around $7,000 in state. A cheaper state school is ~$10,000 a year (all numbers are tuition).
- zeroonetwothree 7y agoIn the Bay Area beer is upwards of $10+ now.

- moron4hire 7y agoYeah, comparing beer prices, it looks like the exchange rate is around 1 farthing = $5 USD (assuming buying direct from producer, not at a bar that is adding overhead after distribution. US booze distribution laws are insane and add tons of cost) So that makes 1 penny = $40 1 crown = $200 1 shilling = $480 1 pound = $9600
