Is $50 still a lot of money to you?

I don't think I saw a fifty dollar bill until I was married and It was probably on "Price is Right". I would have swam across a ice filled river for one 50 years ago. Now I give one to the neighbor kid for helping me around the place and he looks at me like "You got to be kidding me boomer".

Yes and depending upon recent situation a 20 is hard for me to part with I

Kids helping get $5. There are a number of really good lessons in that, more than what’s in a $50, I can tell you that.

still good money to me
it is a tank of gas or almost a tank of gas

meal out with the wife

two cases of beer and a sack of pork rinds

2 boxes of ammo or maybe one if you have expensive taste

1 brick of 22

unfortunately it is not a brick or primers any more and only one pound of powder.

$100.00 isn't even much anymore.

A grocery store will show you what indignities the dollar has suffered.

Yes.

Funny you should mention this. We were recently discussing the tooth fairy. I remember getting a few coins when I was a wee lad. One guy said his grandson got a $20 bill from mom and dad for a lost tooth.

I remember working in tobacco in the early 60s for 50 cents a hour and that was work the kids that still work has a lot more easy way to make money today. I still bend over and pick up a penny head or tails.Yes $50 is still a chunk of change.

I make decent money but still hate to spend $50 on something if I don't have to

$50 ....... its the new $20 (or maybe $10)

I don't think of $50 as all that much, but still become outraged at spending $12 for a meal at a fast food restaurant. A lot of things I don't do any more because the prices have gone up so much. Not because I can't afford it, but because I refuse to pay the ridiculous prices. I have lived too long.

I still pick up pennies, so yeah...

$50 is still hard to part with

Yes it is. And I'm not one of those clowns that throw away money every week on stupid lottery games either or sports betting. That's just insane to me.

50 is the new 20 like Crowfoot said. Hard to get and easy to get rid of.

No when you gas up your truck say I love you biden!!

Same here

30 years ago $50 at grocery store would fill a cart now can’t fill a bag

50 and 100 ain’t nothing no value

Yes any bill to me is a important endeavor earned.

But lets all be cognizant of todays worth of the dollar as well as others having a different view of importance in wealth !

Yesterday's rules of funding are not even a whisper in todays earnings !!

I still think 50.00 is alot of money even though it doesn't go as far as it used too.i pick up pennies and save my cha ge every week and put in a canister till full.we went to Culver's Tuesday night my grandsons basketball team had a share night.it was 38.00 for the 2 of us.we ordered extra to try and help the team raise money. There went my 50 I was trying to save.

Yep.

I was rich as a kid if a had a 5, but now a twenty don't get ya half what that 5 did it seems. 50 seems like alot to me, but not the store clerks!

Yes

Unfortunately, yes.

$50 will buy two nice coyote traps. I'd be upset to have two traps stolen, so yeah, its still a lot of money to me.

Can't buy much for 100.00, let alone 50.00.

$50 depends on what im doing with it but is still an amount that makes me pause and think about the purchase heck when I was in my 20s I never thought it likely I would make over 100,000 and if I did I would be rich. Well I sure don't feel rich. Maybe I need to make 200k to feel like that these days . Lol I sure don't know how family's are getting by with the prices of housing, vehicals, and living expenses today. Especially after all the job offers I have had from the "good paying" places around Louisville.

Feels like alot of money until I try to buy something

My neighbor runs his bobcat for me $50 is standard for a short job today. He would do it for less or free but he has expenses and his time I think it’s just fair payment. I will have him do a few jobs if needed. We do a lot of dog/chicken sitting for each other that’s just helping each other out no money is exchanged then.

Yes, especially at the diesel pump when $50 will barely get you quarter of a tank of fuel

Depends on what you're spending it on. Take trapping supplies 50 bucks don't get ya much maybe 1 3/4 traps. Then shipping so maybe 1 new trap.

I gotta laugh. I used to have a Ford F-150 with dual gas tanks. I'd go into a gas station and give the clerk a $100 bill. One gas station I did this at , there was a young guy behind the counter. He said to me he wanted to get a pickup but after working in the gas station and watching how much it cost to feed one , he no longer wanted to own a truck.

Yes it is Some don't think so but try to pry it out of their hands

Reminds me of a time a few years or so ago when I went through a fast food drive thru. I had a lot of change in my pocket, so I paid part of the bill with it. A younger girl took the money. When she saw the fifty cent piece, she gave me a snide smile and said, "What is this?" She must have thought I was trying to pull a fast one on her. I told her it was good money. She had to check with her manager who OK'd it! All she could say after that was, "Huh!"

Yes, yes it is.

Hmmmm.......

Devious plan.......get myself a bunch of fifty cent pieces , a few Eisenhower dollar coins and some $2 bills , then go and mess with some young cashiers......lol

May the fun begin......

Yes $50 is a lot until you donate it, then it doesn’t seem like much.

If 1 dollar was blowing down the road, I would stop and pick it up. So. Yes, 50 is no small amount.

depends on if you are getting it or paying it. 50 or 5,000 same rule applies

The other morning at the health club there was a nice new, shiny penny on the floor. Saw several young people look at it as they walked by it. None of them would pick it up. I finally did. I know, I'm old.

Yep it is a lot. But then I still stop to pic up a penny on the street.

Absolutely! Heck my monthly SS check is only 20 times that.

50 bucks is 50 bucks, it's not "alot" of money anymore.

As Yogi Berra said, "A nickel ain't worth a dime anymore."

People think $40.00 finished beaver is good money...

Shoot if I find a quarter in a parking lot I’m excited

50.00 ain’t nothing ...when they charge 15.00 for an Italian Grindah

A shinny penny...NO

A wheatie ....You Bet !

100 is the new 20.

50.00 canadien ain’t worth much in the USA

Its good for us we are an exporter nation.
Its why Trumpy got addled with China keeping their currency low-advantage China.

It's still a lot to me, but sure doesn't go far.

Definitely go faster than they come.

$50 will feed us for a week, so yah, a lot of money.

I used to think I did alright on the tooth fairy until I got older and I was told the money always came out of my own piggy bank.
