At A Cost

My first month's salary as a teacher, back in October 1978, saved me from going into debt for the first time ever. Quite a few years later I can still recall the relief I felt back then. That's a useful memory at a time when prices are rising sharply for so many necessities and so many are feeling the pinch - and worse.

I have the great good luck not to be all that troubled by the rising cost of living. Wish the same were true for others.
