The 1971 US federal minimum wage was $1.60/hour, equating to $64/week (40 hours). Using the official $35/oz gold price, that's ~1.82 oz/week. At today's spot price of ~$3386/oz, it translates to ~$154/hour or $6160/week. The post's $150/hour and $6000 are approximate but close, highlighting fiat devaluation since 1971.
