Would you rather be an extremely rich person in 1960s or a well-off person today?

I think being middle-income now is probably more appealing.

Rich in the '60s.  More tax loopholes, easier money laundering, and less STDs for all the :buttsex: I'd be doing on the hippy sluts because I'm rich as fuck.

What's your definition of extremely rich and middle income?

Millionaire in the 60s, or you make between 100-500k a year for your family now.

$100-500k a year is FAR from middle income.

I didn't ask anything, I chose rich in the '60s but I'd rather be earning $500k today than millions in the '60s because $500k today is ballin.
Even after taxes which is a straight up raping at that income level, you'd still be sitting pretty.  You'd retire with millions in the bank and investments, paid off houses, etc. with that income.  Well that's if you had a good financial advisor which I would.

Oh shit. Sorry, I need to open my eyes a bit wider when I read things. Yeah, 500k a year is balling, but it's not extremely rich.

The present by a long shot, we have a lot more information and resources on hand. Living in a simpler time would be nice, I'm sure, but I bet it would be hard to get used to. I live in the woods now, which would be a lot less practical back then.

I'm also spoiled by the incredible :potleaf: and :beer: available today.

The crux of the issue is that middle income, in my eyes, is around $60-80k a year.
Upper middle is $100-150k
and I'd say north of $150k income for one person is in the rich range.  Not straight ballin rich, but not hurting and below the government's highest tax bracket so that's good too.

All depends on where you live. 100k a year is barely middle income in some areas.

The crux of the issue is the question of live now or in the 60's in its many variations seems to come up like twice a week around here.

True I didn't think of that.
Where I grew up, high level income is $100k+
You can get a nice 3,500+ sq ft house in a gated suburb around $200-250k
South TX.  Very low cost of living.

The only reason i'd want to be in the 60's is to see a couple bands. Otherwise I'm good in present time.
