The good ol days when a 2 family house didn’t cost $1 million

Our family got our first 4 bedroom house in monroeville Pennsylvania for only a mere $155,000 in September 1995 but is about $325,000 in 2023 after accounting for inflation

No internet, no smartphone back then. Even the sun shined differently.

In 1995 I had just finished college and gotten my first job on Park Av working at a bank. Strong economy, solid leadership and good times. I remember the 90’s being the best decade for NYC.

I am 60 years old and in many ways have had a hard life. However, the 1990's were definitely a better decade for me and for everyone I believe. It was a more hopeful optimistic period of time. The Cold War was over and all the problems of war and climate change and growing dystopia in politics and with new, untried high technology were not even on most people's radar. The 90's are the good old days in my book. My best decade for certain. Things really started going downhill after 9/11 2001. That is when the golden age ended.

I’d finished grad school a few years before ‘95 and was a few years into a career that lasted until 2017 when mental health struggles forced me to retire early. Rather than stressing me out and contributing to my mental health struggles, I feel nyc kept me going and held me up through my struggles. Professional life in nyc from the 90’s-pre pandemic was magical. I’d give anything to turn the clock back 30 years and do it again.

1995 was a classic year

8:27, RTS's galore, including the then Brand New 1994 TMC RTS's! They were numbered #8600-#8703, and were the first buses delivered with the newer Detroit Diesel Series 50 engine. These buses retired in 2010, replaced by the 2008-10 Orion VII Next Generation Hybrids. They were a mainstay at Michael J. Quill, and later went to JFK/Far Rockaway.

I'm now 47....wow time goes by in the blink of an eye. But I will tell people, I lived in Manhattan in my 20s and that is the time to do it, if you are ever going to!
