The Flintstones owned this home on a single salary, from a husband with only a high school diploma.

This was considered normal in 10,000 BC, when the documentary began.

The outtakes are something else in that documentary.

They didn’t call it Bedrock for nothing. Every night the bed was rocking. Barney fucking Wilma, Fred fucking Betty, Mr. Slate fucking Fred, Dino fucking all of them, and all the action in the back seat of that car that served as the model for the Cybertruck. Oh, you didn’t know that? Even when the Cybertruck is unmoveable when confronted with anything more robust than grass and its inventor also has rocks in his head?

@FluentInFinance

The cool part is the one car garage.

@FluentInFinance According to Dept of Labor statistics, in the 60s a 25 year old high school grad made more, in today’s dollars, than a bachelors holder does now.

Oh, and tuition and fees were a helluva lot cheaper then, too. Quarterly tuition at my 4 year state college was $88 for a full load.

@FluentInFinance @dannotdaniel If it weren’t for those damned animal rights advocates we’d still have wooly mammoth vacuums.
